changed my mind about that. a loving god could still help others for the sake of preventing itself from feeling bad, if not for the sake of making itself feel good.
the quality of having unlimited or very great power. Interesting. https://www.google.com/search?q=omnipotent+definition&rlz=1C1GCEA_enCA813CA813&oq=omnipotent&aqs=chrome.1.69i57j0l7.3320j0j9&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 (of a deity) having unlimited power; able to do anything. So Google can't even agree with itself. I'd say that disqualifies it as a reputable source for topically-sensitive definitions.
Means omnipotent for a human = great power Means omnipotent for a deity = unlimited power Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Vociferous, ''very very little'' is not nothing. Besides, Guth is talking here (below) about the ''observable universe'' taken back in time to just before the inflation period. Notice Guth says his theory does not rule out an infinite universe. https://ned.ipac.caltech.edu/level5/Guth/Guth_contents.html Here's a quote from page 4: https://ned.ipac.caltech.edu/level5/Guth/Guth4.html
"A World with a loving God".... has gone to... power levels... this is how super heroes were made up! Threads like this. Just an observation. EDIT: God = unlimited god = limited
Personally, I think it can come of absolutely nothing, but I acknowledge some people might not think inflation technically supports that. And how Guth changed his tune over time is immaterial. An infinite universe is not justified by science, as it ultimately requires a fallacious infinite regress.
''not justified by science,'' Yet, running the observable universe backwards until its values for energy density (matter and EM radiation) reach near singularity, does not say or give any indication about the spatial extent of the whole universe. As you know, every point in the universe is the centre of its own observable universe. So, you could say values for energy density reach singularity at every point in an infinite universe. How can the Universe be infinite if it was all concentrated into a point at the Big Bang? http://www.astro.ucla.edu/~wright/infpoint.html
Making claims about things beyond the observable universe is not justified by science, as physics dictate that we can never know anything about that, due to the relative expansion of space exceeding the speed of light limit on the transmission of information. IOW, relative to us, light sources beyond the cosmic horizon are moving faster than light, just because of the metric expansion of space. This horizon acts as an event horizon of a black hole, which also bars the retrieval of information. All else is pure speculation.
