I don't understand the quantum world so i still find it hard to accept. I can't get my head round the "thing" that is the big bang, where is it to begin with, before it explodes (or what ever the descritpiton is)

You kind of made me understand more and thank you. I get that the universe is expanding and if you reverse that i suppose that's the big bang ? ? But thats not what i don't get, i suppose what i'm saying is, when the universe is but a tiny spec this is the bit i can't comprehend, this spec must (in my head) exist somewhere, just like life did before i was in it, like a tap of running water filling up a cup, take it back to the first drop, that drop exists in the cup, the cup exists in the kitchen, the kitchen in the house . .etc etc etc ... could this universe be incased in another universe and so on . . my head hurts .. ha ha :-)
