Re: Praise The Lord
The desire (need?) for things to have a 'beginning' may be a weakness in our human cognitive ability. Infinite regression seems to present a paradox of sorts.
RAMOSS is correct in that the universe might not have been created. It very well could be eternal, and OM agrees with that. I used to argue many months ago that the universe had to have had a beginning, but my past arguments in that area were wrong, and I've changed my position on that.
There is no way to 'show' (prove) religious matters such as any "beginning of the universe" theory. Religion is an open functional system, and as such, it does not and cannot make use of proofs. It instead makes use of supporting evidence.
