Proof by Contradiction: If the universe is infinite in spatial extent, and came into being, that would be a type of singularity where it would have to *instantaneously* expand infinitely in spatial extent. Such a process is unphysical. Therefore, a universe infinite in spatial extent cannot come into being, and is therefore uncreated. AG A more direct way of understanding my claim: If you don't believe the universe can instantaneously expand to infinity, it must be finite in spatial extent, since no progressive expansion, no matter how fast, or for how long, can be infinite in spatial extent. Therefore, given the premise, the universe must be finite in spatial extent and cannot be flat. QED.
