No, 'cause it's wrong. It came to being about 13 billion years ago, and will soon die out. It's about halfway through its life now.

😕 You realise it can't both be halfway through it's life time of 16 billion years and be about to die, don't you?

Our universe may end, but I don't believe time can--if anything has no beginning nor end, it must be time.

Are our minds finite or infinite?

It seems to me that it would require an infinite mind to comprehend the infinite.

Do you have an argument for this claim?

I consider this as two questions.

1.) Can you accept that the univere always existed?
2.) Can you accept that the universe always WILL exist?


To #1 - I would not accept that the universe always existed.

To #2 - I can accept that it always WILL exist given one historical addition to help it - the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

I do know that God became a man. So man must be special.

1) I can imagine infinity, though I don't really think it's true

2) whether you can imagine it or not isn't an indicator of whether it's true or not
