A third scientific proof that the atheist is wrong is seen in the second law of thermodynamics. In any closed system, things tend to become disordered. If an automobile is driven for years and years without repair, for example, it will become so disordered that it would not run any more. Getting old is simple conformity to the second law of thermodynamics. In space, things also get old.
Astronomers refer to the aging process as heat death.
Even a universe that expands and collapses and expands again forever would die because it would lose light and heat each time it expanded and rebounded. The biblical assertion that there was a beginning is scientifically correct. It was God. If matter had a beginning and yet was uncaused, one must logically maintain that something would have had to come into existence out of nothing. From empty space with no force, no matter, no energy, and no intelligence, matter would have to become existent.
