Hello readers
Well stu, it's an interesting notion that something never truly ends.
But if we turned it onto it's head - can we say the same of beginnings?
ie, does something ever truly begin? I find it difficult to get my head
around this one - imagining that something never ends is the easy part,
but then I must conclude that that something does not have a beginning -
which annoys me to say the least. I'm sure there's some philosophy
based around these notions, but for the life of me I can't remember what
it is. The easiest way to look at it is by way of concepts of infinity -
which I hear only a handful of people believe anymore, since now they're
saying the universe is finite.
I'm afraid I have to remain undecided on this one - I can feel myself
verging on a barrow-load of contradictions, so I'll end it there.
See you later folks.
