Which is pretty much axiomatic, though I would say it differently.

I wouldn't say it's axiomatic, I'd say it's a proposition that needs to be supported. Time as we know it started with the initial expansion, so in that sense, at least, the universe has always existed. I think you can make a case that philosophical nothingness is impossible and has therefore never existed, does that make 'something existing' the eternal thing?

The closest to nothing physics can get is quantum foam, and it's hypothetically capable of spawning universe all day long. Does/would quantum foam count as the eternal thing that must exist if anything now exists?
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
