I’m gonna try to reply to everyone who asked me stuff while I was out lol. I’m tired so I apologize if I miss anything.
1. On the whole whether finite or infinite, the universe does not “require God” to explain the science: I agree. I see God less and less as the ‘thing’ that fills in the gaps these days and take a much more purely fideistic approach to faith. So my asking these questions is, legitimately, not faith-driven. I am curious about the science.
2. Do I think the universe is finite or infinite? Um… I have no idea. I like the idea of the universe possibly being curved and therefore being a four-dimensional sphere. But even with such a model where if you keep going in one direction theoretically you could end up back in the same place, that doesn’t mean the universe is finite from a time perspective.
3. I like the theory of quantum eliminating the singularity causing an infinite state of time before the Big Bang. It is much simpler to my mind than trying to figure out what “happened” “before time”.
4. When I said always I was speculating a universe that has existed forever. Infinite time.
