cuts both ways. current science can't tell us what happened either. its really beyond our comprehension at the moment since time and the laws of physics did not shape up until after the early moments of the big bang.
Apparently I've had, till now, a very similar conviction about a/the Creator God. And (S)He is still alive! Haha - Depends on how to define!

Evidence of the existence of 'multiverse' revealed for the first time by cosmic map"
If it is beyond comprehension, you don't know what laws, what physics did or didn't exist at or before big bang. Beyond comprehension sits God of thunder. Beyond comprehension sits God of lightning. Beyond comprehension sits God of the universe. When things beyond comprehension and superstition start answering unanswered questions, the antidote is science.
Albert Einstein quotes on "God" “Behind all the discernible concatenations, there remains something subtle, intangible and inexplicable. Veneration for this force is my religion. To that extent, I am in point of fact, religious.”[8] “Every scientist becomes convinced that the laws of nature manifest the existence of a spirit vastly superior to that of men.”[9] “Everyone who is seriously involved in the pursuit of science becomes convinced that a spirit is manifest in the laws of the universe – a spirit vastly superior to that of man.”[10] “The divine reveals itself in the physical world.”[11] [This is why Einstein is more than just "God = Universe"] The devine reveals itself through the Universe. “My God created laws… His universe is not ruled by wishful thinking but by immutable laws.”[12] “I want to know how God created this world. I want to know his thoughts.”[13] “What I am really interested in knowing is whether God could have created the world in a different way.”[14] “This firm belief in a superior mind that reveals itself in the world of experience, represents my conception of God.”[15] “My religiosity consists of a humble admiration of the infinitely superior spirit, …That superior reasoning power forms my idea of God.”[16] 8]H.G.

If God does exist, I venture to say the only reason a human can fathom for the creation of the Universe is, God is lonely. This in turn, led to a supremely creative act. I have other theories that make for better sci-fi novels.
