Infinite doesn't imply repeating.

But if its infinte the exact same planet has to exist elsewhere. Sure the odds are fucking insane, but if its infinite then it has to exist.


FYI, I believe the universe is finite.

No, it doesn't. There are no two identical numbers in the set of real numbers, yet they are uncountably infnite.

Math. It works, bitches.

Where are the edges?

Its up for debate. There are scientists that would disagree with you.

In terms of a 3 dimensional being the universe would be seemingly infinite, but it's actual shape is more akin to a torus with 3 dimensional space being wrapped along the inside of the Torus. So if one were to continue to travel in one direction at a greater than light speed it would be possible to reach the point at which one started.

That would be a lovely idea if there were actually any evidence of it.

There are "scientists" that dispute evolution, too. The most current and broadly accepted cosmological models propose an unbounded universe. That's a fact.
