Forever?

U think all of existence will always be here? I'm not talking bout the earth etc.
I will say that according to Ecclesiastes 1:4 B and Psalms 104:5 that the Earth abides forever.
So, to me that would include our moon.
As far as ALL of existence we see there are changes in the universe.
And as far as wicked people are concerned, the time is coming when the wicked will never exist again.
The wicked will be 'destroyed forever' according to Psalms 37:38; Psalms 92:7; Psalms 104:35; Proverbs 2:21-22

Doubtful, I'm thinking this universe will die heat death when no thermodynamic free energy remains so it can't sustain the processes that increases entropy.

There are other hypothesis but heat death is the one i favour.

Who knows. Maybe tomorrow there could be another big bang that erases all of existance and wipes the slate clean. Maybe big bangs have always happened, and we experience just the latest iteration of existence to come along - a single page in an endless book

Beats me!

From the Eastern conception one view of where we are:, Each such day of Brahma is called a "kalpa". His night also constitutes 4.32 billion human years. During his day, life exists in universe. In nighttime, no form of life exists. So one complete day and night has 8.64 billion human years. Age of Universe according to Vedas

Another site says "partial annihilation" during this "night" Vedic Time Periods

To complete the staggering lengths of time, the lifespan of Brahma is given in this figure from the last web page:

I think so.

The odds are firmly established at 1 in ?.

I actually think life and death for living beings is timeless and eternal.

It's just the ego that dies a true death.

Was just posting in another thread about nonlinear time.

The answer is it depends on the limitations of your own perspective. Yes and no.

Yes. Everything will be here forever. I subscribe to the idea of extropy and reverse entropy and since it will take entropy trillions of years before heat death occurs, we will be able to shape and form realities which the being retains autonomy after death. The distant future has technology and utilities that are now foreign to us, but will be common place at that time.
