>>>If something as wonderful as creation not "Just Happen" how could something even more wonderful and with the ability to bring it all about "Just Happen?" In other words, "Who created God?"

>>Okay, let's just say, for the moment, that there is no God. I'll assume not a hard thing for you to do. :-) If the creation is not performed by God, then just pick any other source for creation. Go ahead, pick anything. :-) The fact is, you would still have to have the same question about that source (where did it come from?). For example, say Entity X performed or Phenomenon Y caused creation. You still will wonder where Entity X or Phenomenon Y came from. You can do that backwards in time ad nauseum and still be asking the same question about each previous source. So, you almost have to come to a conclusion that only something with God-like qualities (ie, eternal, omnipotent) must ultimately be the source. That, or you conclude that it was "just always there." Whether you place your faith in Entity X, Phenomenon Y, their predecessors, or whether you say it was "just always there" at some point you are putting your faith in something that doesn't follow logic.

>I find the concept of infinity easy to explain as "goes on forever" but impossible to comprehend. I can't imagine a universe that goes on literally forever, but I also can't imagine what's on the other side of the boundry that doesn't exist but has to be there because I can't imagine things with no boundries.


Well, an infinite series of Big Bangs and Big Collapses, each collapse creating another universe, each Big Bang comimng from the collapse of another, through unbelievably massive black holes. Rules of space-time, and indeed physics in general, don't apply in the interims. I find this helps with these concepts, but still doesn't explain what is outside the boundaries of what our expanding universe is "pushing out".

Generally, God creeps in there somewhere. :-)
