That is an example of the Unmoved mover, the all eternal creater.
As for the universe, most scienctist believe it was always there, just in a clump ball of extreme gravity that reached critcal mass and exploded, similar to the way a nuclear bomb works. The reason most people believe in the big bang theory is because the universe is falling apart. Its constantly moving apart, as can be observed with the Red Shift Theory.
What that is the observation that the universe is seen as red, because red is the slowest moving color in the visible spectrum. Blues move faster than the spread of the universe so we dont see them but the red colors are left behind showing that the universe is moving apart from a single focal point.
The gravity to create such a tightly packed ball of mass is known to exist because black holes show that to us everyday. A black hole is estimated to be the size of a couple inches across but packs the gravity of several million Sun's. Its powr is currently observable because there is one black hole thats being documented as its shallowing an entire cluster of stars.
Also be rating the gravity of the universe we know what 90% of it is located within black holes, know as dark matter, or invisible space, while the parts that we can see makes up only 10% of the universe.
Thats my explaination of the big bang theory.
