*What does this have to do with anything?!? Just becuase you can imagine a bigger number doesn't have any *bearing on anything.
Just saying as compared to infinitely old, it is not so old, that is all.
*1) The idea of a beginning has not been "tested" and "verified". It's simply impossible to "test" such a *thing. We can only build a theory for it.
*2) Models and theories are developed which explain, model, predict, and so forth, what we observe and what we *can infer. Theories are used until either (a) it is proven to be false or (b) we develop a better one.
Einstein's theory of General Relativity predicates a beginning and this theory has often been tested and passed.
*3) There is a model of the universe which does not require a "beginning". <
What is that? I'd like to read a little about it. Do you know of any links.
*That is a question which requires much more time, thought, and study than this post could provide :) If the *answer could be written in this post it would not be the answer.
Yes of course. I Agree and I'm not arguing with anyone. (Sometimes that is not easy to make clear in a forum message.) Just stating my POV.
