    No but if the universe has been forever and it hasn't really changed all that much, that would've happened by now.

    You were the one saying that if God existed, so would every other God imaginable too.

    If you accept that something must have a cause/creator, then so Godx needs a cause/creator, Godx+1. A situation which is absurd and doesn't really solve anything.

    If you accept that something does not require a cause, then, according to Occam's wonderful razor, you can simply cut away any unnecessary deities. ALL deities.

    You were talking about quintessence. I'm merely saying that heat can be converted out of energy form. Big difference between a universal theory based on tetris and a scientific fact.

    I wasn't saying the universe was always the same, I was saying that the matter and energy in the universe have simply always been here. This easily allows for a big bang/big crunch scenario.
    As for all energy being thermic energy; when the universe was "born," all available energy in the universe was thermal. And glowing, some say. It was a big glowing ball of heat energy that eventually cooled and allowed for the formation of stars and other stellar objects. Also, the universe was pretty close to opaque. However, I'm basing the last part of what I said on a theory I don't intend to prove.
