Quote: Much like a light switch goes from off to on back to off. As soon as you postulate a super hero as the cause of that cycle, then it begs the question as to what caused that super hero, and what caused that super hero and so on. The problem is called "infinite regress".Ah, no-way. (Say it in a Ted Theodore Logan voice)
All one has to do is simply be smart enough to understand that what is being measured as 'infinate' is the light in the room. Or rather what has been 'created' in a given plane of existence.
No one is making the claim nothing has existed nor can not exist outside of your 'room with a light switch.'
(which leaves room for anything who can reach the light switch the ability to turn it on)
Think of this world this life/your life, as the matrix. There is a 'real world' outside of this one (the area which God exists) God is the creator of the 'matrix' (which again is why everything tastes like chicken) Eternity simply refers to an existence beyond the measure of time we clock at start of or creation this matrix and the ultimate end of it. So when we say God (an infinite being) created "Everything" We are saying a being outside of the matrix/this realm created everything in this being from a specific point in our time and our 'matrix space.'
You see, all your little "can't happens" are easily pooped on when one learns to think outside the little box you've been taught to think in.
