Quote:This is very interesting. Could you expand on this? It sounds very much like the 'I Am' who is and has always been? If space, energy etc could have always been, why not this super intelligent being (from whom these things eminate)?

As Carl Sagan said.

Why not just save yourself a step and say that the Universe has always existed?
