"Events" are the indivisible "atoms" of existence. (An event is an instance of a verb)
In the beginning even space didn't exist.
In the beginning, an event occurred. The first event. A single solitary event that was the totality of everything. The singularity.
Asking what happened before this beginning is like asking whats north of the north pole.
The answer is not "nothing". The answer is that the question itself makes no sense
Everything didnt come from nothing. Everything came from everything.
Events require a noun and a verb.
The only object around was itself but what sort of action could it have been?
This event, the singularity, gave rise to 2 more events, lets call them singularities, which gave rise to 4 singularities, which gave rise to 8 singularities, then 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024...and so on, thereby spawning an ever expanding and highly chaotic sea of singularities in which space still didn't exist and in which life could evolve.
Obviously these singularities had to interact in some way.
For 2 singularities to interact one must be able to "see" the other.
In order to produce what we see around us today each of these singularities would have to be able to 'see' (by means of entanglement) 2 other singularities (1 is not enough)
and, in turn, be 'seen' by 2 others. (not the same 2 because that would just result in a trivial 1 dimensional chain of singularities and that could not possibly produce what we see around us).
Therefore we can picture each singularity as a dot with 2 arrows leaving it and 2 more arrows entering it. (an arrow indicates seeing)
Perhaps each singularity (which is an event) "distinguishes" between 2 other singularities. (The distinguishing IS the event).
This could conceivably explain why the singularities were replicating and at the same explain time why the sea of singularities was so chaotic.
(if it werent chaotic it couldnt have produced what we see around us)
Somehow (Perhaps from the collapse of an unstable loop of 4 neutral singularities)
this khaos would give rise to 2 other types of singularities.
1 type with 4 arrows pointing outward (call these positively charged singularities)
and another type with 4 arrows pointing inward. (call these negatively charged singularities)
These 2 types probably didnt split into 2.
Only the neutral singularities divide.
The total number of outwardly pointing arrows must always equal the number of inwardly pointing arrows.
Why wasnt the sea perfectly uniform and boring?
why is this sea of singularities so chaotic?
in our world we can cut something into 2 identical pieces
but they arent really identical because they occupy different locations
in a world without space 2 completely identical objects could not meaningfully be said to be 2 different objects
so the act of dividing into 2 requires that the 2 resulting objects be distinct in some way
hence the singularities 'see' each other and 'make a distinction' between them in some way or other
Perhaps they distinguish between the act of seeing and the act of being seen.
So a single singularity is "distinguished" into 2 singularities and the resulting singularities are "distinct" in some way.
this simultaneously explains how they split into 2 and why it was chaotic rather than perfectly uniform
by chance, stable loops (strings) eventually formed in this khaos

These loops might be drawn together and might catalyze the production of more stable loops.
within the region of stable loops there would probably arise another region of even more complex loops of loops
the first loops might be composed of 4 singularities just like helium is produced from 4 hydrogen atoms.
the loops of loops might be composed of 16 singularities just like oxygen is produced from 4 helium atoms.
If space didnt exist then what separates them and keeps them from being a singular singularity?
Exactly the same thing that keeps things from falling off the sides of the round earth
nothing
nothing needs to do so because that simply isnt the way things work
