Ha Ha — i know when you think about it - it gets freaky.. something that doesnt end is strange to us because we have a beginning and a end— Only God has stated he had no beginning and has no end— God wasnt born, he was always there— thats stange to the human mind, and hard to process—lol

10-4 on that. The thought of NEVER ending is impossible to imagine but the thought of NEVER beginning, even doubly so.

That's why I gave it up, a long time ago, it makes my brain hurt.

I'm reminded of Matthew 19:

23 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Truly I tell you, it is hard for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”

25 When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, “Who then can be saved?”

26 Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

Freakier yet are the problems with the disk accretion theory of planetary formation, which, if disproved, leave us with impossible odds of a planet capable of supporting life, to the point that it may well take an infinite universe to create not only a planet with life, but a planet with sentient life. We may, in fact, be the only life out there. What this does to theology or our sense of purpose is anyone’s guess. My take is that we simply don’t have the smarts to suss this and similar questions yet. I’m hoping that we have the smarts now that could get us to where we can figure out the conundrums of existence. If we don’t, game over.
