Existence

[godBoy]

I'm convinced of an eternal entity. It's simply an impossibliity that this all came from nothing.

Absolute Nothingness is absolute nothingness now and forever..
For something to be added to it, that thing that was added had to have existed.. Knowing that something eternal has existed makes it easier for me to accept a life after death.

In the explanation of the expanding/collapsing universe theory I read.. The cycles aren't the same.. After however many births the universe has it still leads to a singularity, so with each expansion it doesn't reach the same distance as the previous. So in the explanantion I read this model still suggested a finite universe and a beginning. Is this incorrect? If so, the universe does not simply 'exist' rather it was created at a point in time.
