And if interested, Brian Greene's The Fabric of the Cosmos: Space, Time, and the Texture of Reality is a mostly accessible lay account of the issues involved. I strongly recommend it for anybody interested in the topic.
Greene is best known for his book on superstring theory (that was turned into a popular PBS show) called The Elegant Universe.
And of course this is all irrelevant if there is a God because any attempt at figuring out how the universe works is pointless since the rules can be changed at any time and may have changed at any time in the past.
