I don't get how people can say the universe is finite. We are still expanding, how can we expanded if there is no room other there? Perhaps, out side of the universe is just darkness, or maybe there are other universes. No one knows.
There is nothing outside of the universe. Not darkness because darkness is not nothing, it is something. There is no time or dimensions for darkness to exist in. It's void.

God is outside of the infinite physical universe. So there is just one God who came in the flesh, Jesus Christ.
How could us mere earthlings possibly know THAT?

"Two things are infinite: human stupidity (you) and the universe, and I'm not so sure about the universe" -einstein. Teh universe is finite, and it is still expanding. it isn't infinite like everyone says. And how the hell do you assume that because of that you'll live the same life. You're statement lacks support...and well it's just stupid Don't go for astrophysics, they'll kill you
How do you know the universe is finite? Fifty years ago the universe was thought to be only a third of the size of what we know it is now. We just keep seeing more and more and more and more with the advancement of technology.

If the universe is infinite, then wouldn't that mean we will live this life again and again? Since there will be a chance that every single atom that the world is made of will come to gather like it is now? Just a theory.
Also, couldn't that mean there are an infinite number of Gods? If they actually do exist?
The problem with this reasoning is that what you just said might seem logical by some reasoning, but unless it has a basis in scientific observation than it means nothing.

The "current accepted theory" as to the nature of the Universe is that it is Finite, but without boundary.
Fifty years ago, we did not think that the Universe was a third of the size of anything, it was likely theorized that it was infinite, or, as it is accepted now, finite without boundaries.
We don't see more of anything, we theorize, we calculate [or rather, Hubble does most of those calculations].

because it was one third of what it is now. It's expanding. It's called the Hubble effect
