It is just a theory, after all. Even if it were true, you can't really call it at a fact at this point, you know?

In the beginning there was a lone singularity sitting is space.
The singularity was all of space. It was not contained within it. Space was contained within the singularity.
If I am to accept your point that I am indeed wrong, I will need some clarification on the properties of a singularity.

so can someone explain to me how the universe began and why scientists are using the big bang theory and not another one..

You can thank Brandon for that question, he's now 11.

It's a vexing question. Does the distance from the singularity to its event horizon constitute space? For instance, if our sun went super nova and eventually collapsed into a singularity, its event horizon would have an effective raduis of about 2 miles. But the actual singularity would be about the size of a softball. So what do we call the area between the softball sized singularity and its event horizon?
Brandon sounds like a trouble maker, best to put him on a steady diet of prozac and ridlin, that'll 'answer' those types of questions. And if he is still too jumpy, just give him some of that 'robitussin PM' stuff, that'll knock 'im out.
" . . . but event horizon sounds bad ass. Sounds like something I'd name a space ship, or a rock band.
The center of a black hole ( the singularity ) has infinite curvature and matter is crushed to infinite density under the pull of infinite gravity. Therefore it has no size.

If the earth were compacted to a size less than 2/3 of an inch across, it would be a Black Hole.
