Another question to ponder is if you each the edge of matter in the universe (the "farthest star" if you will) does space just stop? Or does hard vacuum continue on forever?

yea made you really wonder what is it like on the fringes of 3 dimensional universe that just didn't exist 1 second before
In my opinion the whole existence or creation as we know it was definitely put in motion and is still in motion which we casually termed as time that is the ability to track changes surrounding and remembering those changes around us,
otherwise this whole grand motion of existence would be unknown, not enjoyable and not witness-able.
We are the spectators of this which was put in motion and which is still in motion, a grand existence in which we partake in this tiny period of time to marvel on it and to become part of it for a little time and to fill it with our consciousness which otherwise would be largely just empty dark void, mindless and soulless and dead. Thus we are in essence the witnesses of this whole creation and both at the same time, the resulting consciousness of this whole creation.
And i just couldn't believe that we are who we are because of some odd accident or a freak coincidence because everything fits beautifully and in a harmonious order, reliable, stable and life sustainable. And because chaos could not create order out of it ever and because nothing only creates nothing and because motion must be started by something and because that something must have implied a beginning and because that beginning is a proof of design judging the results of it and because design implies intelligence I must refuse to accept that this whole marvelous things I'm looking at including my beautiful wife and children as a result of a god damn freak accident.
Just like when you look at a Ferrari, beautiful and functioning and able or with a purpose and enjoyable you must say what a piece of engineering amd you would be nuts if you said it was what it was by itself. Bear this in mind when you're out close with the nature and looking at that mountain or mountain range or the tranquility of that lake or the majesty of the open sea or when just simply staring into the eyes of your loved one. What a piece of engineering!
