Natural facts are not dependent on human opinion.
The true significance of the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation is that no one in our universe can see past this 'wall'. Now there may be nothing and nowhere and no time beyond this wall. But there may also be an infinite, frothy mass of singularity events, each walled off from its neighbor by a 'wall' of cosmic microwave radiation like the membrane of a soap bubble. Both theories are currently (and perhaps permanently) untestable. I see no reason to give primacy to the nothing/nowhere/no time hypothesis when neither view is confirmable.
