That which you do not understand is infinity...

RE: That which you do not understand is infinity...
Well you're all being a bit harsh frankly.

OK - its not well laid out, but its not that long either.

Lots of interesting ideas - nothing to poke a stick at - but nothing even resembling proof or justification for any of the statements.

We don't know if time will be infinite - it might be, it might not. This applies to the universe as well - it could simply run out of energy at some point and dissipate out of existence.

Even if it doesn't there's a good chance it will expand so far that everything beyond our galaxy will become invisible to us. This will mean that our galaxy (actually ours plus Andromeda) will, eventually become our entire universe. There will be no evidence for anything beyond it - merely inky blackness.

Now if whatever energy that drives our galaxy runs out, then, to all intents and purposes - the universe ends as far as we are concerned.

Other than that - a pleasant read.
