"The universe has to end somewhere?
Doesn't it?
They are looking at the end of the universe. Very simple.
"

Does it? I mean, are we defining the universe as meaning the farthest extent of matter? If so, then perhaps I could agree that there is an outer limit.

But if you are are attempting to conceive that there is a point in which existence no longer exists, then I would encourage you to stop thinking in terms of finites (finite constructs are what we are all used to dealing with)

Isn't it easier for you to imagine a poured concrete wall, spray painted with flat-black paint, than to imagine a picture that exists, on and on, and on & never, ever ends.

Damn thing about it, though, something has to be on the other side of the poured concrete wall.

Infinite is just hard to comprehend, just as it would be to live forever.
