I wondered as a child whether the stories I was hearing in church (RC) were true or just stories. After many decades of research and reading, I am convinced that these two: Created or Eternal are the only two possible reasons for the Universe to exist. In another venue, I expressed my thoughts as follows:

It doth puzzle me
That the universe can only be
Created or here eternally.

Someone or something
Had to supervise diligently,
Was it God or Gravity?

The problem you see is that
No one understands infinity.

No Theologian, Philosopher,
Physicist or Mathematician has
Ever claimed to see forever
Forward or backward infinitely,

That is why I'll neither Theist nor
Atheist be till someone can enlighten
Me on this matter of infinity.


Since I believe that our five senses along with
Aristotle's logic and Galileo's scientific method
are all we have to correctly identify the universe,
I'm at roadblock. Has anyone in the Gulch thought this through to a more certain conclusion?
