I don't understand your point even after reviewing the second law. What does our human perception (time) have to do with energy? Please use stupid layman words if you answer. I'm not a physicist nor mathematician nor even a degree in Basket Weaving For 21st Century Neo-Pornouns.
“The Universe has no known boundaries.”
I don’t mean that literally, but if it is expanding, well then what is expanding. It is supposed to be moving out and away.
The Great Attractor itself is moving toward something even bigger, the Shapeley Supercluster, but the universe is too big for even it to attract everything.
We sure spend a lot of money to keep egg heads busy

I’m happy to try. The core idea is that all the processes that we see in physics are theoretically reversable . E=mc2 and all the other equations work just as well run backwards in time as forwards.
The one exception is the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics. When an event occurs there must be more randomness afterwards than before. The universe must always be getting less ordered as time goes on.
Since that same rule applies to ourselves, we perceive time as an irreversable flow going one direction. This creates our perception of time.
I wonder if the Red Shift plays into this? Isn't that how physicists determine the speed of a mass/particle moving away, and how they just reverse the numbers to come up with a basketball size super-mass for the Big Bang? Physics is way beyond my pay grade. I just go by what I read. I won't bother you further.
I’ve always been an AMD guy, never buy Intel. But ARM... that is cool company. I’m pretty sure they have a bright future.
The idea of “God” is incompatible with God having a beginning. If God is not eternal, then God is not God.
Time isn’t another dimension, even Einstein was very firm about that. However, it’s still a real thing, not something that humans invented. You might say that time is just a measure of accumulating entropy, or at least that it is linked strongly to entropy, since those are the only 2 fundamental things in the universe that seem to have an irreversible “arrow” associated with them.
What I’m getting at is that time couldn’t have existed “before” a Big Bang event, because a singularity with all the matter of the universe condensed to one point is simply not possible if time and entropy also exist. So if you posit there was a singularity that could lead to a Big Bang, then you are also positing, by extension, that time didn’t exist until the Big Bang happened.

There are three “Portals of Hell” existing now in the US. They are the office doors of Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and Kamala Harris.
The “Uber Portal of Hell” is the door to George Soros’ office, aided by his “Less Devils” Cuomo, Newsom, Maxine Waters, Bezos, Steyer, Dorsey, Hoyer, and Democrat governors all across the US.
