I have read some of the other posts about this topic but am still left unsatisfied. Could just be me.
Did the universe, one minute after the big bang, consist of a finite volume of spacetime?
If so, then is it not logically inconsistent that the universe can possibly be infinite now? If we say that spacetime is expanding into nothing, and that nothing is what is infinite, does not language itself make that a nonsensical statement? Isn't that like saying I have an infinite amount of 0 dollars in my bank account? I have not really said anything at all.
Thanks for the replies.
