how did the big bang bang?

q: how did the big bang bang?

a: two parallel universes in the form of membranes; postulated under ‘m’ theory after the 11th dimension was added to string theory from supergravity when a crisis emerged with strings vibrating in 5 different ways; collided with each other while oscillating or rippling. the stars were born when these ripples merged and separated.

ah… i see… this is the theory of everything.. Fabulous mumbo-jumbo to me, I wish i could imagine the dimensions or the membranes.. its like some strange spiritual speak that could very easily be coming out of the mouths of a new age guru.. what has happened to science.. and where was I sleeping when this was going on?

ps: my father, cynical as always, says that was a masterpiece of ‘k u b’ – or ‘kaise ullu banaya’ – his theory of the real world- only three spatial dimensions- add one for time. though i know that he secretly always believed in the 'nth dimension'
