A philosophical piece of writing delving and theorizing the origin and ultimate end of all existence within Existence from a Free Thinking stance and point of view as a Prose-Poetry-Article ...
Author's Preliminary Note: Please do take the time to read my author's note of thoughts and comment given below this piece of my heart and mind shared with you upon pen of page ...
“If
it should hold true to the test of time, and Man's existence in time
of affirming of a certainty, that the Universe of our existence
within all of Existence (known and, hence, unknown) did, indeed,
spring forth from an emanation of a single pin point of light's
Singularity
that is -- and has been for an estimated 13.5 billions of years now1 -- in process of expanding the Universe ever outwardly, in
accelerating towards a precise point of such an expansion's end,
wherein it shall, then, begin a process of collapsing and returning
to its point of origin's emanation and, quite possibly, beyond
(transcending any concept of Man's grasp of comprehension of a
beyond, of Man's self conceived & derived measuring of time, of
inklings of beginnings or ends) to wherever it issued forth from as
that original origin of this Universe's single pin point of light
Singularity, then, in fatality's reality, it becomes an all too
surreal reality of our existence that there is, truly no such thing
as an Eternity of any forever without end, for the Universe of our
existence within all of Existence did (and does) possess a beginning,
and, unless information is gleaned in the future to the contrary,
shall, in eventuality of time, also, arrive at an end; a billions
upon billions of years from now light extinguishing end, but a
pertinently defined finality's end that shall culminate in that
inexplicably unexplainable instant of before there ever was a
beginning -- thus, undeniably demonstrating that there is no such
thing as Man's self-conceived concept of any, literal, forever's
Time's timely Eternity … Albeit, Man has a damn long time to
contemplate such an incomprehensibly mind boggling reality of time
that shall culminate (possibly in witnessing a sooner than later Man
self-imposed extinction) in that long time's no time of existence in
that ultimate before there ever was a single pin point of light Man
terms as a Singularity that began our all of existence within
Existence that we, each, call life -- and so, if the Universe of
existence within all of Existence shall have an end, then, so shall
Mankind, in eventuality of time, cease to be (as ten thousand, a
million, a billions years from now makes no difference in time run
out of time), leaving no viable option within this Universe's
dimension's reality for any Religion's (speaking expressly of
Organized Religion) Eternity ...”
This is an attempt to set all of our minds to whirring in open minded Free Thinking questioning of that which we have been taught in commonly accepted belief as the status quo of what is, and what is not, so --by, both, Organized Religion & Science, which has become a veritable Religion of its own... It is high time that ALL Humanity learned to think for themselves, and cease our current existence of who we truly now are as Human Sheeple-People Cattle, fed-n-watered, sheared-n-milked for the slaughter upon the killing floors of that very next War to be waged and fought to end all Wars, Wars ever unceasing but always appetizing to dumb ass stupid cattle grazing upon a fool's fodder of drinking Mickey Finn's doctored, blind to Humanity's current state of reality, mind poisoning water -- a state of Human hearts and minds gone mentally blind, numb, and dumb as placated and domesticated Cattle chewing the cud of false reality ...

What has a begining will indeed have an end as nothing in my opinion is permanent. This is a poignant thought provoking free-thinking piece I thoroughly enjoyed. It is much easier for people to follow than think for themselves or indeed question what they have been taught by organised religion or education which keeps us trapped in a box owned by the elite. I hope people take the time to read this thought provoking piece whether they agree with it or not. Really enjoyed it
Some say the universe began the size of an egg or a golf ball. They do not say where the egg or golf ball came from. Some say it exploded outward and others contend it collapsed inward (an implosion) and then began expanding afterward. But they never say who lit the fuse. Your guess is as good as the astrophysicist.

Thanks for reading my exploratory theoretical philosophical thoughts ...
I aspire to this thought
The short answer is we don’t know. We know the observable universe — the part we can visibly see and measure — began around 13.8 billion years ago with the Big Bang. So we know the age of the universe is finite at least from the time of the Big Bang. But the universe is getting bigger. It has been expanding in all directions ever since the Big Bang and continues to (and recently it has been getting faster and faster).
Leftover radiation from the Big Bang, which we call the “cosmic microwave background”, represents the earliest picture of the universe, back when it was smaller, hotter and denser. We can take images from this early time to understand the universe’s shape (or geometry) on the largest scale. Knowing this is important to knowing whether the universe is infinite or finite.
Measurements taken by satellites have pointed to the universe having a flat geometry. In a flat universe, two light beams shot side by side through space will stay parallel forever, and will never cross or drift apart. In this sense, we can still think of a cylinder or torus (donut) shaped universe as being “flat”.
Current measurements aren’t accurate enough for us to know whether the universe’s flat geometry is represented by a piece of paper, a cylinder, torus, or any other shape that permits the parallel passage of two beams of light. An infinite universe could have a geometry that is totally flat like a piece of paper. Such a universe would go on forever and include every possibility — including endless versions of ourselves. On the other hand, a donut-shaped universe would have to be finite, as it's closed. But for now we still don't know the shape of the universe, and therefore nor can we know its size.

People who think that Donald Trump is in office to do them good have brain damage. He has no intention except himself but we see blind allegiance nonetheless just like we do in religion however then we see him file 66 lawsuits based on his beliefs the entire right feeds on insecurity. Not on facts they feed on conspiracy theories none of that matters in a court of law only facts and that’s why all his cases were thrown out. One thing that causes a big problem in the United States is the law that exempts social media from being sued for publishing lies. If for instance Time magazine where to print ally a blatant Abusive lie about saying Donald Trump they would be liable to be sued. But social media does it all the time and no one gets sick because they’re not responsible that’s a change that would stop this
However my opinion of the almighty is that our ideas are so warped. the relationship we have with god is to me like a master and a dog. Im not impressed

For your insightful input of thoughts shared as a more than reasonable conclusion as to the reality that Organized Religion's touted God as the Almighty, in reference to Man, is a lopsided relationship based more upon fear, intimidation, and subjugation more than is any proclaimed teaching which seeks to profess that the Almighty is Love: Loving, KInd, and Merciful ... We live in a world where helpless and innocent Human Beings are murdered, butchered, and slaughtered in their homes, on the streets, and in war after war in the name of waging war to end all wars ... Where is the love to be found in watching loved ones die of disease, disaster, murder, or yet another war waged by one nation against another? ... It does not take a rocket scientist to ascertain that, clearly and all too obviously, Organized Religion's Almighty is not ALL-mighty, ALL-knowing, or ALL-powerful ... Thus it is my personally derived conclusion and assessment that Man fabricated and created the very concept that is Organized Religion's God, and so, to put it in brutally frank and candid words that hold nothing back: Man IS God, as God IS Man ... And this fact of our reality as Humanity upon planet Earth should lead us to evaluate and determine that our realistic reality all too surreal is as per my article: Violence -- Not Love -- Is The Overwhelmingly Predominant Force At Work Within Our Universe : https://www.writerscafe.org/writing/FlynndeGraham/2820604/
As an Intelligent Design Free Thinking Creationist, I attest that some thing, in unfathomable fashion beyond Man's comprehension, brought our Universe into a state of Existence, the means and methodology of which we also cannot, probably will never, fathom or comprehend ... One thing is logically certain: The Universe of existence did not pull itself out of the Magician's rabbit's hat of its own arse ... Whatever or however our Universe came into existence, there is nothing to suggest that such means would, or should, necessitate and facilitate any exhibition of Love, for Love is a Human concept's characterization as an attribute seen and witnessed in our world all too rarely ...

Anything is possible within an avid imagination's realm, but not all things are.. read moreTate,
Anything is possible within an avid imagination's realm, but not all things are sensibly plausible, nor likely, in that sense of logic and sound reasoning ...
In our modern day world where we find people Polarized in positional stance of literal extremes of extremist thought, beliefs, and viewpoints -- wherein one side's position is, all too obviously (to our shame as fellow Human Beings), in fervently belligerent disagreement with those holding to equally extremist positions of thought, beliefs, and viewpoints (two Poles consisting of diametrically opposed set in stone mindsets) whereby neither side, neither position, is willing to sit down at the table of calm open discussion in seeking viable answers based upon common sense sound logic of reason -- I do sense a true essence of the root cause of the ongoing total Polarization of our Society that is currently afflicting the citizens and peoples of each and every nation upon this planet we call Earth.
The average person would (might) suggest that the root cause, as a terminally cancerous problem, is that of flawed ideologies promoted as Salvation's quick fixes for Mankind, coupled with ineffective Politics run by crooked-a*s Politicians the world over. And, such a statement is tragically more than factually, and indisputably true. Yet, there lies much more below the surface of all the aforementioned errancy that would I would dare to suggest has been (is being) intentionally and purposefully overlooked as a touchy topic of subject that none wish to face up to, nor willingly seek to discuss: The enemy-like animosity that exists between those fervently Religious, and those adamantly Atheist id, in all factuality, the root cause of the very Polarization we witness as apparent, and appalling, in our world and Society of today. Please allow me to elaborate upon my line of assessment's reasoning, and drawn conclusion, as stated just below:
The average Religious person would, likely, dare to suggest that the root cause of such Polarization is due to a lack of obedience and dedicated service to their given proclaimed faith, and its teachings -- an attitude of Supremacist (better than thou) thinking which I call the prostrate yourself and grovel at God's Feet Factor.
The average Atheist would, likely, dare to suggest that Religion, (in and of) itself, is the root cause of such ongoing, and increasing day by day, Polarization of our entire Society, our nation, and the world over. And there is truth to be found in such a statement, though (for the record) I shall always defend every individual Human Being's right to Religious Freedom of practiced belief and observation -- the right to believe, as well as to disbelieve.
The real and undeniable truth is one which I shall attempt to assess and clarify -- as an Intelligent Design Free Thinking Creationist Moderate who has been caught for many years betwixt the two fervently opposed extremes of Organized Religion and Atheism -- and as a (it takes two to tango) bullheaded position of two factions blindly claiming and seeking to promote themselves as right -- for it is these two distinct extremes of thought and belief that have set the stage for the very political and ideological extremes that have served to bring about the Polarization of our Society, today, in coercing and peer pressuring individuals to choose between one of only two extremes: i.e.: Right Wing Conservative & Left Wing Liberal.
Yet, there remains one pertinently powerful (right in your face but sight unseen), additional, fact that is being ignored, as overlooked, by both sides of two opposed extremes who would rather have you as an enemy, than to see you, as a Moderate. For neither Right nor Left, Religious nor Atheist, are willing to take a position of common sense logic based sound reasoning that takes into account the deficits and the amenities of both positions rendered as the extremes they, themselves have created. And all of this Polarization, due to the reality of the above mentioned groups refusing to give or budge even an iota's smidgen in seeking after truth for the benefit of all Humanity as Mankind; to seek truth honestly and selflessly in endeavoring to arrive at true, workable and livable, solutions suitable for ensuring a peaceful, profitable, perpetuity's future for Humanity as Mankind -- a future that I, personally, believe must preserve and assure the retainment of every Human Being's individuality, as well as every Human Being's reasonable right (as a uniquely individual Human Being) to that grand Freedom's concept of life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness as members of The Human Race.
Therefore, here is my brutally frank and totally candid take on the root cause of the Polarization which we all do see taking place within our modern day Society: The Religious Conservative Right of Extremes outright refuses to consider, discuss, or admit to any possibility that would, or might, allude to, or confess, the reality that, just perhaps, the very teachings which Organized Religion professes to the world may not be based upon the very truths which it believes and claims to be sharing with the world as the Truth -- and that for sheer tremors' terrors of fear of arriving at a cold harsh reality: Regardless of how our Universe came to exist, the very concept that Organized Religion refers to as God is a Man's imagination creation and fabrication simplified thusly: God is Man, as, Man is God. It is fear, fear of giving up God (a God that does not exist but in the minds of men), fear of arriving at Atheism, which prevents the Religious Right from open and reasonable examination's discussion of logic derived facts of our accurate reality as Human Beings; as Mankind struggling to continue our existence upon this planet as The Human Race.
In a hand-basket fast on its way to Hell in a nutshell: The Religious Right and The Atheist Left are running f*****g a*s scared: Scaredy-Cats, with Organized Religion fearful of losing God on the one hand of extremism, Atheism afraid of even entertaining the possible existence of a true Creator of all that is and will ever be (what I choose to term as an Ultimate It) that exists outside and incomprehensibly beyond any realm or concept of any Religion's God -- is, in fact, is bigger than Man's concept of God, for my proposed Ultimate It is not plagued by a Narcissism's Insecurity Complex, is not Ego-Maniacal, and does not demand or require the prostrate yourself and grovel at God's Feet Factor of worship and obedience, lest such an Ultimate It cease to exist as though It, as an Ultimate It, depended upon Man's belief in It, as the Ultimate It, in order to continue Its Ultimate It existence as the orchestration of all Man witnesses as existence within all Existence that we call our Universe. Atheists are afraid of finding any proposed Ultimate It. For, to propose that the Universe simply pulled itself out of the Magician's Hat of its own arse is totally illogical, and reeks of fear induced insanity. On the other hand, Organized Religion is afraid of giving up a nonexistent God. I sincerely say, “F**k Organized Religion's concept of God!” And, I shall never accept the foolish notion that the Universe has simply always existed, or is, metaphorically, asexual in having spawned itself as, literal Creator of itself as our Universe.
In final conclusion, from my personal viewpoint, it is, both, the (Far Left of Extremism) Atheist, and the (Far Right of Extremism) Bible, New Testament, Koran, thumping Religious, who are literally f*****g up the world in which we all must live, Polarizing and destroying the very Society in which we do live, and that by stubbornly creating, fabricating, and selfishly insisting upon allowing for only two positions of thought and belief of viewpoint (beyond any rhyme of logic's reason) in pitting one against the other as opposite poles separated by a vast distance, which they, themselves, have created as a position which makes for and allows for a choice of only two options of extremes of Extremism -- a position makes no allowance or accepted position for common sense logic based sound reasoning's position of moderation as a Moderate. And, we scratch our heads and wonder, in our world separated by Polarization, why people commit heinous acts of Extremism. Go figure!

I don’t remember anything that happened for the billions of years before I was born. My mind tells me that I won’t remember anything once I’m gone. Time will cease to exist as a factor that evolves through me. Beliefs have no consequential reaction to reality. What someone believes or doesn’t believe does not change facts. I don’t believe that creator created us. The universe is too fast for anyone entity to ever have the power to create it. Nor do I believe some creator would create us as a sub lifeforms to himself just to get us to worship him. Thereby telling us we could never achieve his level. Every father wants his child to be better than him. Not lesser than a no good father wants to be worshiped. Only a narcissist needs to worship Those below him. Whether we figure out in the end how it all came to be or not we certainly are not big enough to create such a thing ourselves. As technology grows we will learn more. I do believe that religion in many ways is an evil invention

I am sure you noted that my concept of what I term as an Ultimate It (what I also term as An Extant Catalyst Reactant Ultimate Source Point Of Origin Of All Existence) does not bear forth or exhibit a single characteristic or attribute of that which Organized Religion touts as God ... Thus, however Man came to be, I do not believe that our origin (if we originated on this Earth at all, or actually, regardless of whence or where Man factually originated) had anything whatsoever of our coming exist as lesser beings, but simply living beings provided with all we need to make it on our own, make our decisions, decide our own fate and future ... I do not believe in any Creative Source, no matter what it might or may not be, that owes to Man anything, or from Man expects or requires anything ... Such an Ultimate It would never be so egotistical as to claim to be our Father, nor teach lies that claim we were created in his/its image ... Such teachings are Far Right Religious lying a*s propaganda ... It's quite shame that Organized Religion cannot face the reality that they teach a nonbexistent God, and simply give God up as the Bullshit that He is, has always been, and seek after realistic answers as to the origin of the Universe and the origin of Man ... It is also a shame that Atheism, as a whole, cannot give up the notion (based upon fear of being led back to the Bullshit of God) that the Universe just happened or has always been here, and also sought after better and more logical answers to such questions that most all men ponder upon during their lifetimes ... If we could all stop squabbling about how we got here, and focus on making the perpetuity of the Human Race our one goal upon which we all, each, agree and focus, we might actually attains to answers these many questions someday, thousands or millions of years from now, if our planet holds out that long ... Why can we all simply say to such questions, that we have theories and ideas, but, in all honesty, we just don't f*****g know, and likely shall never know, and stop feeding the masses fairytale fables based upon Bullshit? ... I agree: I believe that when we die we return to the oblivion we knew in our mother's wombs and upon our birth in not attaining consciousness of until we reached a certain stage of development as new born babes, toddlers, and children ...

I cannot speak to the idea that the end of the universe will end heaven. However heaven where we are supposed to be eligible doesn't follow the rules ofour universe As i see it. A place where we give up our bodies to be eternally with our friends and relatives as disembodied spirits on drugs that keep us happy forever without the need for anything other than love. Yeah that doesnt sound too appealing to me

I am sure that you are fully aware that the concepts of a Heaven and Hell are mythological fairytales, and nothing more ... Allow me to share a bit of the harsh reality of Heaven as painted in the Gospels and surround by that terminology not be found within the entirety of the New Testament: https://www.writerscafe.org/writing/FlynndeGraham/2827623/
Rapture This
It is said that your very life, full and in Technicolor, flashes before your eyes just before you die. What is on the other side, if there is an other side? No one living really has a clue, though every religion will attempt to fill one's clueless-ness, each with teachings of its own ...
For example: Of the eight or nine people listed within the Bible that allegedly returned from the dead, not a single one remains to tell us what is on that other side, or if that side even exists. Even stranger still is that not a one of them had a word of encouragement to offer within the text of the very Bible that reports their return ...
Even Jesus has been conveniently swept away to prepare mansions that, if he and his alleged father truly had foreknowledge of his mission to earth, should have already been prepared long before his alleged voluntary & willful suicide upon the cross. Now, if there was a logical reason to wait on construction until after the theatrical festivities, just how long does it take the Creator of the entire Universe to build mansions for the very few that are said to be saved? After all, if God made the heavens and the earth and all that is in them in six days, surely He can build a few mansions in a bit less than two thousand years. Patience is a virtue, but something is wrong with this picture ...
And still, beyond sanity's sensibilities, the Christian world awaits a Christ's return that shall never take place; living in hopes of a rapture that will raise them from their graves, or translate them to be swept away to walk streets of gold in a beautiful city of limitless housing where every person (every race, creed, color, or language) has his own individual mansion and there is no wrong side of the tracks where the poor, undesirable, folks of different skin tones, cultures, or languages, are relegated to reside, because everyone (well, the folks selected to live there) will live forever in peace and harmony in a Heaven1 that does not exist (nor ever existed except in the pagan-fairy-tale-mythological-imaginations of men); to feast at a great banquet, sipping endless supplies of finest wine, while listening to the cries of those starving, uninvited, individuals begging at the city walls; to top the festivities as guests and spectators who are blessed to watch from a safe distance as myriads of helpless people, including loved ones, friends, and relatives (those folks not selected to live in the city of perfect equality called Heaven -- a veritable Socialist paradise), are cast upon the fiery grill to roast in Eternal Suffering2 of a sinner's barbecue Hell3 that, coincidentally, also does not exist; to then live forever with Jesus, who just so happens to be God (a merciful, loving, God), who also just so happens to be a man, and so it happens that Jesus (who is God), having always preexisted with the Father, has, then, always preexisted as a man -- has, thus, always been a man …
Wait a minute! Do not all monotheistic religions teach that men are not to worship anyone but the one and only Creator of all that is and will ever be �" that men are not to worship men? Hmmmmm … So why would such a Creator command men to not worship other men, and then appear and exist as a man, a created being forbidden to be worshiped? Perhaps, man has been monking around in penning the text of those very fairy tales that have held Christianity in suspense for over two thousand years now. Perhaps, the pagan world of polytheism has found a clever way to rule over those who believe themselves to be monotheists.
Are we believing what is actually a provable truth? Or are we believing what makes us feel better about our own mortality; makes us feel better than others in thinking we are deserving of Heaven, while others are not; deserving of life, while others are not?
Are we thinking clearly? Are we thinking at all? Or, are we simply living out the programmed lives of cattle fed the fairy tale lies of ancient pagan mythology superimposed upon the Hebrew and Jewish monotheist religion?
I invite you to do some real, in depth, studying of what history has to reveal about the true origins of Christianity … Dare to be a Freethinker4: “A person who is willing to accept and explore the possibility that everything they were ever taught to believe as an established truth may not actually be true -- and that honestly, selflessly, and diligently in search of that which is true, rather than choosing to cling, blindly, to accepted and commonly held truths.”

3 Hell �" “... The simple idea of hell has often functioned as a necessary complement of heaven in an all-embracing moral or hedonistic wish-fulfillment. Men may devoutly desire hell�"for other people. And the assumption that the powers-that-be in the universe, in the role of cosmic police officers, will deal severely with whatever man considers evil is no less a reading of wishes and ideals into existence than the assumption that they are supporting everything he deems good. In fact it is the same assumption expressed differently. The concept of hell is compensatory in so far as it serves to provide a vicarious victory over the evils that so frequently win the day in this-earthly life. And like the idea of heaven it is only too likely to cut the nerve of effective action against the ills of this world. One of the most impassioned of the early Church Fathers, Tertullian, gives us a most instructive paean of transcendental triumph: “How shall I admire, how laugh, how exult when I behold so many proud monarchs groaning in the lower abyss of darkness, so many magistrates liquifying in fiercer flames than they ever kindled against the Christians; so many sage philosophers blushing in red-hot fires with their deluded pupils...” �" Corliss Lamont: The Illusion Of Immortality (1935), page 208.

While I have trouble following your thoughts ill put in my two cents. The current thoughts say that the universe will eventually die . The lights will go out. The fuel burn up. Now I personally think that the weakest force in the universe which is gravity will in the end win out drawing EVERYTHING Back together in a giant black hole that will cause the birth of another universe. Now we dont have enough brain power to fathom this contraction. However we can surmise it to be true.

If the Big Bang Theory is true and was a factual event, then it becomes no longer a theory, but a reality of the initial origin's beginning of existence of our Universe, and, thus, I agree that from said expansion shall one come a yo-yo's retraction of returning to that very point or origin ... Sadly, we won't be here to see it, and if we were, I doubt we would enjoy it ...
What has a begining will indeed have an end as nothing in my opinion is permanent. This is a poignant thought provoking free-thinking piece I thoroughly enjoyed. It is much easier for people to follow than think for themselves or indeed question what they have been taught by organised religion or education which keeps us trapped in a box owned by the elite. I hope people take the time to read this thought provoking piece whether they agree with it or not. Really enjoyed it
