Rough day? No, not particularly. Why do you ask?

When you yake the same rant to multiple threads it usually means you are upset.

Erm... no, "we" don't.

If you do know this, I suggest you share your findings with the scientific community. Get ready for a lot of fame and attention, though.

If universe was infinite from the beginning, then I can accept that it is infinite now.
Was it?

But if universe started as a zero-dimensional finite point, then it should be finite today too. If not - when did the finite universe turn infinite?

I've asked this question before, but I have never received a good answer.

May I ask you the same question when you rant around about the creation theory?

Well I can't give you the answer, but I know that the scientific community does not claim the universe is (in)finite so that's what I'm going with.

I feel it's also good to ponder the notion that the early universe may have been crazy small (that's the official scientific definition) but still infinite in size.

You'd be better of asking this question to an expert, but the answer might be a lot more complicated than you're able to handle.

Show me where I did that.

Ranting again? Had a rough morning, eh?

What do you mean by space? What do you mean by vacuum?
Give me your scientific explanation, and I will teach you further.

If you don't know what space is, then you need to get educated.

So tell me.
Start with dimensionality.

We can stick with the three dimensional world.

So you say space is a world?
Space is so simple for you? Nothing else?

And its dimensionality? Have't heard about string theory?

Your knowledge is so small. You really have to educate yourself.

Try again, or admit that you don't know much. "Goddidit" perhaps is more in your level.

"crazy small ... but still infinite in size"

You really have to explain this to me.
