That alone demonstrates that none of you know what's going on in contemporary science.As a layman, for me, this is the biggest illustration that you haven't updated your knowledge for, what, 30 years or so. Most physicists do not 'believe' that the universe is 'past-finite' because that's not what the evidence tells us. What they do say is that the current universal state inflated from an event preceding Plank time but that classical models can't describe what the preceding state is. They cease to make knowledge statements and instead look to quantum physicists who are trying to work out the problem from the other way round. We understand that there was a different state, positably many different states, but we can't describe it/them. We understand that classical time began at the point of inflation but that time may exist in other states to that of classical theorem and behave very differently.

If you change your tone, he may still be willing to exchange but it may already be too late. As an analyst, I can tell you that failing to include his knowledge is ill advised.
