I didn't put words in your mouth. You probably misunderstood what I was referring to. I was tring to say that for some reason you find it more possibe for magic god to be forever over the physical realm to exist forever. One sounds more plausible to you even though you may not necessarily believe that. Yet they are just as equally plausible
Maybe you have a hard time imagining that matter changes form. For example a rock will one day turn into dust and that dust will become a tree then those particles will form micro organisms that will one day turn back to rocks. Its all cyclical, one day our planet might disintegrate and the sun burn up then we will float in space. The universe might contract then explode into trillions of stars over and over like a beating heart expand contract then expand again in perpetuity.
We cannot tell from our tiny vantage point and time scale.
Otherwise you would have to entertain the idea that something can come from nothing.
Also you didnt point out any fallacies you just stated that "believing that physical realm has existed forever is just wrong" without any backup.
You did put words into my mouth. I said 'it is more likely to believe...' and you then said that 'I believe...'.
'it is more likely to believe' ≠ 'I believe'.
So in fact, you misunderstood what I was saying.
Also, we've never ever seen the universe contracting, we've only seen it expanding (by that I mean galaxies moving father and farther from each other).
Btw, the rock example isn't very good, because technically, the rock itself will not become a tree, it's just that the tree seed itself will fall into that dust and grow into a tree by feeding of that dust. (so a seed will become the tree, not the rock)
It's like saying an antelope will become a lion because lion will eat it.

I mean, it's obvious that the universe (or universes) with infinite past creates a progress paradox.
If the past is infinite, than the present should never come.
Believing in the universe(s) with the infinite past requires a MUCH bigger leap of faith than believing in God.
