Hi JCM! There is an alternate theory about Membranes and a collision between the branes causing the big bang…
The math works out in string theory with the mathematical 11 dimensions it calls for.

Yeah, but string theory is a mathematical castle constructed in theoretical air, lacking not only empirical evidence, but, so far, any suggestion of a conceivable experimental avenue that could provide it. Which is why I consider it to be a conjecture or hypothesis, rather than a theory.
