That's like saying a football field can't be 100yds long because it
would have to expand to that instantaneously.

No. We build football fields, in stages, by increments.
But it only becomes a football field at some moment.
An infinite field
cannot be built by finite increments. Not a close call. JC made the
same claim in another thread, and we agree on this. A finite universe
remains finite even if it expands. Likewise, an infinite universe remains
infinite. AG
You understand that, but you refuse to understand that our universe,
assuming it's infinite as the evidence points, was infinite from the
beginning and being infinite does *not* entail that it had to expand
instantaneously...which you keep asserting.
