I'm glad you looked up all those words up because none of them apply to your theory about god. Good for you.Conclusive: incontrovertible, undeniable, indisputable, irrefutable, unquestionable, unassailable, convincing, certain, decisive, definitive, definite, positive, categorical, unequivocal;No. The universe..Don't be silly. Of course we do. We know the universe is expanding. If the universe was infinite, then it would necessarily by definition be eternal. The 2nd Law states that the entropy of closed system will always increase over time. Entropy is the unavailability of a system's thermal energy for conversion into mechanical work, often interpreted as the degree of disorder or randomness in the system. This does not prove chaos or randomness in the way many imply. It only conveys a loss of thermal energy for conversion into mechanical work. Loss of thermal energy for conversion into mechanical work does not mean the matter within the closed system cannot be orderly. What it really means is that there is a cost for every exchange between matter and energy. Furthermore, the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics proves that the universe had a beginning because if the universe were eternal (i.e. expanding and infinite) there would be no usable energy left within the closed system.You don't know if the universe is finite or not.
We know the universe is expanding. If the universe was infinite, then it would necessarily by definition be eternal.
not the universe, the Cosmos.

Chris Langan:
You have to prove that the universe is a self-referential system. Then you have to examine the attributes of this system, analyze the system to determine how it behaves. It turns out that in certain ways it behaves mentally like a mind. The natural question to ask then is: whose mind are we talking about? The answer to that question is the mind of God.
Chris Langan:
I believe in the theory of evolution, but I believe as well in the allegorical truth of creation theory. In other words, I believe that evolution, including the principle of natural selection, is one of the tools used by God to create mankind. Mankind is then a participant in the creation of the universe itself, so that we have a closed loop. I believe that there is a level on which science and religious metaphor are mutually compatible.Science is conclusive until proven otherwise. Gee, that little sticky thing called "proof" sure gets in your way.Prove it. Do you have a peer reviewed scientific paper on that?1+1=2, It's a fact. Move on.Actually, no science can't prove that. Have you never heard of the uncertainty principle in quantum mechanics? Can you please show me actual peer reviewed scientific research proving that the chair you are sitting on is real?Science can conclusively prove that the chair that I'm sitting on is real.
Anyways, just because you say something doesn't mean that it's a fact, even you should know this by now.
Please tell me which scientific facts you accept? Because I still don't believe you understand the concept that... Science is never conclusive because laws, theories, principles, et al are always subject to revision if new data comes along - up to and including refuting the laws, theories, principles, et al.
