Are Physical Infinities an Absurdity?

Consider for a moment that the contending scientific theory for how our universe came to be is the Big bang theory. Now, if this is correct, then our universe, although enough time has passed such that it is now incomprehensibly large but still finite, then expansion is not the issue. The issue is whether the universe is expanding into an infinite space or if it will come to a halt and reverse or contract. If spacetime had a beginning, then it is reasonable to conclude that literally nothing exists outside spacetime. Imagine for a minute that the universe was fine-tuned for life as we know it, then that would mean that the constants were designed for life. Either that or life was inevitable given that lifeforms are self-perceptual and we live in a self-perceptual universe. God would be part of the self-distributed model of reality. Meaning that there is no distinction between internal and external. YES! God must be a reality! Otherwise the experience of His greatness would not come to be realized. I for one, am 100% certain of God's existence.

Obviously life can occur in our universe. Jumping the gap between predisposed and designed are you?     

Eventually the galaxies will fly apart, stars will explode, planets will be destroyed, matter will decay, heat death, etc. 

By your reasoning these are also designed. Maybe the dismantling happens because something better will come along. You know how things evolve with new technology. Imagine 15 billion year old universe building plans for sale on Kijiji. Would.you buy them to use or collect like an antique?

Matter is predisposed, perception is also predisposed. This is because we live in a self-perceptual universe, where God or Alpha and Omega, takes first priority because it is one in reality. Everything else is of lower order. The question of predisposition versus design is oversimplified at face value. There can be a combination of both. Design can be a side result of living in a sentient universe.

I am inspired to fulfill a duty of informing all of you that I am 100% certain of God's existence as I have witnessed His manifestation in multiple forms. Please see the CTMU post on page 1. Basically, recursion involves feedback between a stimulus/ response dynamic in the universe and this feedback includes the Cartesian mind-matter relationship. Whereby matter generates the mind of God as global syntactic operator relevant to the function of the universe, but this mind is wholly immaterial and cannot affect the material world. The mind of God is bound to the universe and obeys the laws of Physics which explains why it requires telors (us) as agents necessary to the vitality or the teleological self-configuration of the universe. Life after death is fully grasped when the internal and external realities of the human body are no longer divided and so the transition from subjective to objective is easily accomplished. When the mind of God gains autonomy it reads the information on the human observer and responds accordingly. The disjoint realities of subjectivity and objectivity take on a new meaning when their split is united and so the individual enters a holistic world in which the intelligence of the universe is gleaned.

Put simply: there is no real distinction or difference between inside and outside of the subjective world. What we perceive as external is happening in but one reality. This dynamic realm is incoming from the past and so its objectivity is not absolute. It is only by including the subjective world in the medium does it make reality complete. This subject-object split makes the world appear as though it were without a metaphysics. I.e. angels, demons, gods and so on. When this illusion dissolves and the subject-object split is no more, only can we then see the world of God, the actual reality of the absolute. This is what I refer to when I talk about the altered states of consciousness.
