An original sentence by me.

If the universe is infinite, but started at the Big Bang, isn't that going to make the past infinite in the future as the arrow time moves forward?
 
energytimespace is infinite, fundamental, only matter, a form of energy, is not.
an original word even, energytimespace, not just spacetime. fixed that for you.

To quote Anne Elk (John Cleese): " All brontosauruses are thin at one end, much MUCH thicker in the middle, and then thin again at the far end. That is the theory that I have and which is mine, and what it is too."

just in: At the Big Bang, some of infinite energy converted into Virgin Matter, supplied with natural laws, 3D spacetime, --and the rest is our history!
original term: Virgin Matter product of a conversion, as seen at ALMA

PS: truly original from origin?

No. Even a very very long time is still a finite amount of time. You can't turn a finite time into an infinite one by adding a finite amount of time.

For example, say I have 100 jelly beans now, and I get one more jelly bean every second from now on. Will I ever have an infinite number of jelly beans? Answer: no.

It was a metaphysical nonsense question I posted on another forum. I should have replaced the question mark with a period as it would seem more like a statement, hence, an (original) sentence, and in so, keeping with this threads theme.

I wasn't asking a serious question, but only wanting to post some weird sentence.

(I was also wanting to add infinity to 0, so, there would an infinite time in the past, even if the universe started, at the big bang. With a flat/infinite universe space and time would therefore be infinite.)

It would be interesting to analyze this thread so far and group the responses into original sentences (that meet the criteria) and rehashed quotes (that sort of miss the point of the thread).

As I understood B w/S' posit; Can something have a beginning but continue infinitely from then on?

perhaps so, gravity begins at zero at the center, to be at max at the surface and fall off forever to zero only at infinity. original sentence?
Gravity begins with zero at the center, on the way out, never reaches zero again.
