CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

One of the laws of physics is based upon the notion that energy cannot be created nor destroyed, it can only change forms. Our laws of physics would suggest that the energy that exists in our universe today has existed eternally in some form or another. Infinity and eternity are not concepts that humans easily comprehend. We tend to think in the 'finite', births, deaths, beginnings and endings. It is actually much harder to think in terms of infinity and eternity, but in order to explain the current energy of the universe, you ultimately end up thinking in such terms.
That law only apply after the universe existed. Because that law is a law of nature it does not apply when nature does not exist. So the universe could not have exist eternally because the scientific evidence says otherwise.

Well as it turns out, it is most likely that universe is curved and yes if you started out in one direction you will end up where you started. Of course, that depends on whether or not you could ever go far enough in one direction to end up where you started.
At least that's what heard from Brian Schmidt last semester.
