If you think for yourself like you claim I suggest you read up on that "prophecy". Now to answer your question, as far as I know about physics which isn't a lot I admit, the universe has always existed in one state or another. As for what's beyond I can't say for sure, the multi verse is a possibility, but in reality I don't know for sure. As for the end of the universe, it will most likely be a cold death by entropy. http://burro.astr.cwru.edu/stu/advanced/...death.html
You believe the universe always existed in one state or another - like God. You have no scientific proof, but yet you believe and others just leave it open. Of course a multiverse is possible, but how far do these multiple universes extend? It they are the total of existence then they have no end. When I asked about the end of the universe I meant the boundary, but I didn't make that clear. If the universe it infinite, it would have no boundaries. I read the scriptures and I believe that they hold the answers to these questions. My life is also more fulfilled than when I was a non-believer. If I come across some better answers, then maybe I'll have to reconsider. If I die and go to that black non-existence, neither you nor I will care that I was wrong.
I'd be happy to call you on that one Lek, hope you don't mind the friendly call out.
How do you know your life is more fulfilled than if you were a non-believer? Are you a non believer? Have you been? If not I don't think that is at all fair to assume since the leading number of ex-christians now atheists say the complete opposite.
I have read the 'scriptures' as well even the ones removed, rewritten, and edited.
I never saw the answer? I don't think a book written by man, all those many years ago even at their prime had the understandings we have now, I will give you they had some mysteries, but our understanding has been ending the "god of the gap" theory which I believe applies here, we don't know the boundaries and the book does not say.
