Ep #72 - What Counting Down from INFINITY Tells us About the BEGINNING of the UNIVERSE! SAFT Podcast
-
- Christianity
If you start to count up from 0 to the largest number will you ever finish counting? It would take literally forever! How about starting to count down from the largest number all the way down to 0? Is it even possible to start, let alone asking how long it would take?! This impossibility faces anyone who says the universe never began to exist or has always existed. Join us to learn more about this simplified philosophical argument for why the universe must have had a beginning.
