In the context of the discussion, definition 5 is indicated. Note the lack of such terms as "light" and "darkness;" but you can just keep driving your disingenuous crazy train, I'm sure you will regardless.
smh
You do realize the most common example of a singularity would be a black hole right?

I dunno... that might be worth seeing. 
A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.

Haha The Museum of Milk Production.
I had an Amish friend with a few issues of Udder Wank hidden under his mattress.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."
For context, this is the previous verse:
"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

Some creation myth you've got there Huggy. Basically what you are asserting is that God took a shit; therefore, everything.

Eternal universe = how would that even work, it must have begun at some point, everything has to come from something, it can't have just been there forever, something must have been there before it
Eternal God = fine

You can explain anything instantly if "magic man dun it" is something you can use.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

I wonder how people would react if I called them not spiritual enough for thinking the universe has to have been created?

Limited imagination and perception, ego-centrism and delusions of grandeur are natural traits of human-kind. All we can truly imagine is ourselves. We like stories way more than dry information and are easily bored and quickly disinterested without a familiar narrative. Big Bang, organic chemistry, natural selection and other such concepts are impersonal and emotionally unappealing. Big Parent-figure in the sky, who can do anything, who sometimes spanks us, but ultimately loves us - that's something even a very small child can comprehend and relate to; in fact - it has to in order to survive in a harsh environment in which our ancestors evolved.
Our primal instinct is to seek pleasant emotions and to avoid unnecessary effort - both physical and mental. Which is why most people accept easily accessible religious - or otherwise fantastic and entertaining - explanation, reject cold, dry and complex information presented by science - and not even spare a thought for the infinity of explanations possible, if one is not bound by logic and need for evidence - just as in the case of belief in god/-s.
"The fact that a believer is happier than a skeptic is no more to the point than the fact that a drunken man is happier than a sober one." - George Bernard Shaw
