Wrong. The scientific consensus places the age of the Universe to be around 13.8 billion years old. We could rightly say this constitutes the beginning.

What? Are you unfamiliar with Brian Greene's multiverse theory? That this is an universe among many, like suggested by our extraordinary value of empty space density?

Existence has no beginning and no end, this universe may have a beginning but it's just the event horizon, we know nothing else. If we spawned later in the future, we would have no measurable evidence that there even are other galaxies because they would have accelerated away from the event horizon long ago.

You're just dead wrong.
This irritates me about scientists. They use "theory" in two distinct ways and then express frustration when the public misapplies the term ("Evolution is only a theory!"). Brian Greene's multiverse "theory" is a scientific hypothesis and requires confirmation by evidence to be anything more. That said, the Earth was not created in the beginning (of our space-time universe), and my point stands unscathed.
