        If your lack of belief in it changed the actual reality of things, I’m pretty sure that’d make you God.

      Not necessarily. All we know is that everything seemed to come from a single point, on a cosmic scale. However, at that scale, our entire galaxy would be considered a single point.

      What we do know is that everything is expanding, and that it was homogeneous by the point that it cooled enough to cease being a plasma (and so opaque to light). It could have been a vast area that suddenly spawned matter/energy, rather than a single point.
