Infinite Universe?

RE: Infinite Universe?

If the nature of the geometry of the universe itself is infinite, and the cosmic background radiation is largely uniform everywhere throughout said infinite plain… then are we dealing with the possibility of infinite galaxies? Infinite stars? Infinite… everything?

Is this the only conclusion we can reach if the universe is truly a “flat” expanse? According to what I’ve read, most scientists are leaning very heavily in the “no evidence for curvature” direction when it comes to the geometry of the universe. I’m trying to comprehend the implications of that.

We have no way of knowing yet if space is infinite, but the universe is future infinite. It will not exist forever as it does now, but will continue on in some form whether it is as an ever-thinning cloud of photons, collapses into a point again, oscillates, or has some kind of phase change.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
