Excellent point. And probably the most logical I've heard. Just because humans assume that there is a beginning and an end does not mean there is. I'm a Christian. Following my belief system (that was created essentially by humans), the beginning is when this God who has always existed created a world...also, this world already existed as an object but did not have light or air or water or animals or anything on it. It was like the rest of the planets are now. God simply created everything else. The end, of course, is supposed to be "the rapture," though it won't be the entire end. However, I'm swung to believe this theory you've concocted, 3rdeyecure. What if there was no beginning or end to this earth? What if it just is? Infinity is a hard thing to grasp but it's possible that the earth has always existed and will always exist.

Why is it that if you don't have a religion that offers and explaination for the universe, you are expected to know yourself? Isn't it satifactory to say "I don't know and most of the answers to questions regarding the origin of the universe are probably not only beyond what we can comprehend but also beyond what we can discover"? I'm generally too in denial of reality to see reasoning behind any explaination for its existance, so I'm more inclined to believe what I can back up with knowledge I already have, though even that cannot be totally backed. I don't believe in a higher power and generally go with the big bang or colliding branes theory (the latter which is pretty off the wall but still sounds cool and probable to me) but I'm hard pressed to find a cause for the universe's origins. I doubt anyone will ever know the truth.

Good point 3rdeyecure. How can it be that God was here before the infinite amount of time, which never ends, and therefore would not allow there to be other time for God to "become"? Is it simply part of the faith he requires?
