Reading on the topic claiming that Einstein’s llamda constant may have been correct after all (Einstein considered the theory to be his biggest blunder) has me contemplating space-time-infinity - again. But to the point of my current thoughts which do not directly relate to llamda – I still only subscribe to the assignment of infinity to Space (the visible Universe and beyond) and Time (the clockwise measurement of existence) – that to attempt discussing a "beginning" (or ending) of either is pointless and absurd. The notion of limited space or that there is nothing beyond the visible universe is an example of human desire to quantify and understand everything, coupled with the inability to grasp the concept of "never-ending" - infinity.
Discoveries in astronomy and physics indicate (beyond a reasonable doubt) that the visible elements of our universe did in fact begin with the cosmic event referred to as the “Big Bang”, which begs the question: What was existence before the Big Bang? From a logical perspective, the “nothingness” theory is of course absurd. Spontaneous existence from nothing is not permissible by any sense of reason or rationality.
So we don't know what precipitated the cosmic singularity from which our visible universe ensued. But we can be damned sure it was something. Something wonderful.
