Biblical accounts of Creation say that God created the heavens and the earth 'in the very beginning.' Science explains that 'in the beginning' the universe began with an explosion, or now, the more up-dated account, more succinctly describes 'the beginning' as an unfolding, creating Time, Place, and Matter. The point of agreement here between religion and science is 'in the beginning'.
The 'begin' is to bring into existence something that does not exist, something that will spin about and then fade into its end-the void. Can something or anything exist that has its beginning in Nothingness; that enters its own created Time-frame and then ends? Biblical Genesis describes the Nothingness as water; formless, dark, and deep. Creation unfolds: light, form, firmament, sky, land/earth, and all that this produces; yet light always gives way to darkness, land gives way to sea, and shape desolves in formlessness. If indeed, parallel universes exist, the same pattern would follow, creation to void, over and over again; all moving to their end...to nothingness, to the other side, the non-side of Reality.
