You guys are pretty dumb, hey.
'Science' can answer the 'how' questions, but it has no real place in the 'why' stuff. This is the domain, primarily, of theology and philosophy. All of you trying to answer a 'why' question with 'how' answers have rocks in yer head, srs.
Why question number 1:
Why is there something, rather than nothing?
Plausible answer:
A mysterious and all-powerful creator
Why question number 2:
Why was there 'something' in Mary's womb, rather than nothing?
Refer to why question #1. God is the original creator of 'something' from 'nothing'. The virgin birth of Christ is not only consistent with this, but it further enlightens our understanding of who we are and what we are doing here.
