if FOREVER has no END, does it have a BEGINNING?

Question

=))))))))))))))))))

Good night 2 all!

Answer 1

Brainstorm time.
Forever can have no beginning, because it has no end! Everything that has a beginning must have an end. Therefore something that has no end, cannot have a beginning.

It is only when we make forever relative (incorrectly) that we can say it has a beginning. Um, lol, for example. " I will love Jim Carey forever". All i can really mean is (if im sincere!) That i will love him from now till I cease to be. Forever is unobservable, it cannot be witnessed from within the constraints of time.

In other words anything within forever has a beginning and end, but by concept, forever has neither.

Answer 2

If forever is truly forever... the is neither a beginning nor an end. I think that's the condition of our universe - It's absolutely infinite in space and only the matter and energy are finite. It contains everything that it ever will and all that's here to see is in an infinite state of change.... like forever. (...and if you have any doubts about it, I'd say it's a pretty safe bet that there aren't any god's around pulling the strings of those changes. LOL.)

Oh dear Enki - I don't think we'll ever know. And if we did, what would we do with the knowledge? We've a fair idea how time will end for us, as individuals, and as a species - but we certainly don't deal with the present as though we had any idea at all of either. Even to charging on with potentially life-threaening climate change to preserve "economic growth" along lines of only the past century or two! It's all carry on, business as usual (though it's changed so much through time), as lemmings were supposed to behave but don't. Blind Man's Buff. But it's a nice question!

Answer 4

Good afternoon Enki, I am going to try and answer your question, hope it makes sense. Forever,does have a beginning God in his infinite wisdom made that possible. but it also has an end, when the good Lord says our time is up in this World, it is when it ends.

Answer 5

"In the beginning God created....." ; "In the beginning was the word....."
These are written so our finite minds can grasp at the illusive concepts. Forever is FOREVER truly honestly. It had no beginning and will have no end. But we don't understand that. It is essentially infinate and we are finite. We will not understand.

Answer 6

NO and that is based on the assumption no human observer has seen the beginning. And the current observable circumstantial evidence does not lend itself toward ever having a beginning.

Answer 7

Yes. FOREVER is the only thing that has a beginning but doesn't have an end. After it has began, it just goes on and on and on and on.....till it outlives all lives.....and it still goes on and on and on.

And here's how to exaggerate it still; Go tell your sweetie this: "I will love you FOREVER and A DAY".

Answer 8

yes some people say love is forever and love has a beginning.

Answer 9

i don't think that it is plausible to try and describe something that is infinite in a finite universe. i think people just like to use big words to describe what is big to them.
perhaps infinity occurs outside the boundaries of the universe. God perhaps?
forever usually means eternal. without beginning or end.

Answer 10

Well it had to have a beginning for it start in the first place.
