@ghost-of-a-duke saidEach time you correct another are doing the same?
The idea that you speak on behalf of absolute truth, as though you alone have some unique insight, permeates most of your posts. Everybody else is just giving opinions but yours relate to an absolute truth than transcends everything else.

You can't have your cake and eat it. - if the truth statements that 'the universe is eternal' and "God does not exist' are absolute truths then anything you say about God is an opinion and an incorrect one at that.
This is 'exactly' the position you take with your own statements of absolute truth.
Did you bring up scientific certainty?
@kellyjay saidI have explained this already. Heat death and entropy, where the universe ends up in a state of no thermodynamic free energy, is averted by the endless series of big bangs and crucially, 'big crunches.'

Read this:
"The heat death of the universe will only occur if the universe will last for an infinite amount of time (i.e there will be no big crunch). It will occur because according to the second law of thermodynamics, the amount of entropy in a system must always increase."

@ghost-of-a-duke saidEndless series of big bangs, do you have scientific certainty for those?

@ghost-of-a-duke saidI like that analogy on the big crunch. In the USA we have a breakfast cereal for kids, which is labeled as Cap'n Crunch. I never ate it, but it's brilliant advertising for selling cereal to the kids, and parents.

I wonder! How about reversal of the spinning motion in the opposite direction, will it also be effective for rebirth and regeneration?
@pettytalk saidMy big complaint is mind/mindlessness, something/nothing some believe as I do that a great and powerful mind is behind it all, while others do not, I think God can do the work by putting His mind to it, and some think nothing can do it, if it puts it's mindlessness to it.
In this life the only certainty is death. We are born to die. But of lately I'm beginning to doubt it.
@ghost-of-a-duke saidWinding down, becoming less than as the pieces fall apart, where the systems all break down with time we see in the here and now. Reborn and reenergized, what scientific law of nature do you find to be a sure thing, a scientific certainty do you point to for that?

@ghost-of-a-duke saidOne last thought until you respond, isn't your eternal universe much like a one-ended stick, a logical impossibility?
