An eternal Universe.

This is a really cool scientific paper; most of it is completely beyond me, but some parts of it are completely readable:

It shows that prominent cosmologists still very much take seriously the idea of a beginningless Universe.

Heh cool, I've worked with Christof Smile
He has unconventional ideas, but he is quite a bigshot. I'll read it and see whether I understand it Tongue
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

PDF's not good for my ADD brain, but I do seriously want to read all of this. Looks like it'll make for an interesting new outlook on the world.

Fuck, where can we shove God now!

I remember now! God only made it look like there was no beginning!
