We live in the center of a sphere of radius 13.7 light years constituting our Universe. The big bang theory considers the state of our universe before the expansion starts from an original point located somewhere around us.
Suppose there is a conscious life form somewhere in our universe. Their universe does not overlap with ours and their big bang takes place at the center of their sphere.
Is there a reason for their expansion to coincide with ours?
And there should be as many big bangs as there are consciousnesses.
The easiest way to solve this paradox is to assume that we are the only consciousness in the universe, right?
And, there we are brought back to middle-aged thought where man is at the center of the world, which raises the question of the origin of life.
In short, I am very uncomfortable with this aspect of the big bang.
Dear Charles Hirlimann
You raised good question, a conscious universe, and dumb, accidental the Big Bang. This is a hot question, thanks for sharing. Here is my understanding. Article How the Quantum Universe Works
most regards
Consciousness does not come alone. It comes in pair like hot and cold, good and evil and so on. Consciousness and Unconsciousness are of the mind, the materials of which are not known to science. So there can be as many minds as there are consciousnesses but not the Big Bang. The power that imparts consciousness to the mind is only one like the overhead power supply cable on a Railway track which does not move but powers multiple locomotives simultaneously. The same power is capable of creating energy of which different minds are made. So in reality there is only one thing that exists and the multiplicity seen in the universe is apparent.

Dear Charles,
I think you are confusing the observable universe with the BigBang, apart from that keep in mind that the BigBang is defined for 4 dimensions and you are only thinking of 3.
Your discomfort is very easy to solve, there is only exist what is proven and verifiable. The "could" have no place in science
Your thinking is a relativistic one, which we know is incomplete. My thinking is in the quantum framework where space and time are independant.
I agree "could" has no place in established science, but "could" is very useful for building thought experiments.
Dear Charles,
Exactly, I see it as a hypersphere expanding over time acting as hyper-radio. Time for all intents and purposes is nothing more than one dimension advancing perpendicular to the other 3. That dimension can be anything.
If you change that time dimension to Zoom, the BigBang is no longer incomplete and all the questions that occur to you have an answer.
All this is not just words, it can be demonstrated by deducing all the equations of relativity and other equations from it:

@ Charles Hirlimann,
“My thinking is in the quantum framework where space and time are independant.”
Time in relativity is linear time which is imaginary. Physical reality is based on periodic time of quantum physics. Wavelengths and periods of quantum physics are not independent.
