Physics and God

Question

Hello, honored Rabbi, I have a question:
Suppose the universe began from the singularity point, as atheists believe. The singularity point had to be in some kind of motion, because if it were not in motion, no reaction would take place, and then there would be no universe and no explosion. From this, two possibilities follow: either there was a point, and it was always in motion continuously, like a loop, or there is God. But the first possibility can be ruled out, because matter that is always in motion was always in motion, so it could have erupted at any moment along the infinite timeline, and not דווקא at one particular point in time. And that proves that the point, or whatever created the universe, has free choice in some sense, because it decided that precisely at this time an explosive reaction would occur, since because it has no beginning and no end, it could have exploded at any possible point on the timeline.
The question is: is there something I’m missing, or did I misunderstand? How has science still not fully realized this?

Answer

Why is that what atheists believe? That’s what physicists believe.
I didn’t understand the connection to motion. Beyond that, it’s impossible even to define motion in a state where the entire universe is a single singular point.

There is no motion without space, and no particular point in time without time.
