Then you do not understand the Big Bang which does not state that the singularity had finite matter, it contained infinite matter and space and finite time.

What you state here is all wrong. The singularity is all finite to its rim; The singularity is still a compressed energy mass which is expanding as we speak. It can not be infinite in any way. I dont really think you know what the singularity is.
The infinite is a absolute constant. it wont have any finite time. Only the singularity can have finite time because, it is all finite. It can not have anything that is infinite within it. What would that be?????
The singularity is formed by the infinite. But it dosent make it infinite in any way as long as it is expanding back to what it used to be. You probably wouldnt know what that would be. Because i dont think you grasp this at all
In the old picture, this is an easy question to answer theoretically (though not necessarily in practice!). Just get yourself a giant tape measure and clip it to a faraway galaxy, then come back to our galaxy and hold on tight. As the galaxy moves away, it will pull on the tape measure, and you will easily be able to read off the distance as the tape measure unwinds... one billion light-years, one and half billion light-years, two billion light-years, etc.
In our new picture of the universe, however, with the raisins and the dough, the tape measure will not unwind at all as the universe expands, because the galaxies are not actually moving with respect to each other! Instead, it will read one billion light-years the whole time. You could be perfectly justified in saying that the distance between the galaxies has not changed as time goes on. When you bring the tape measure back in, however, you will notice something unusual; due to the stretching of space, your tape measure will have stretched as well, and if you compare it to an identical tape measure which you had sitting in your pocket the entire time, you will see that all the tick marks on it are twice as far apart as they used to be. Using the tape measure from your pocket as a reference, you would now say that the galaxy is two billion light-years away, even though the first tape measure said it was one billion light-years away. As you can see, the concept of "distance" in this new picture of the universe is somewhat more complicated than in the old picture! It is unclear whether the universe as a whole is really "expanding" - all that we really measure is a stretching of the space between each pair of galaxies. (Note that we might have to have an "imaginary" tape measure whose atoms aren't actually being held together by intermolecular forces in order for the scenario described above to actually take place as described.) source
Your views on space and distance are rather simplistic and do not fit with the currently understood philosophy on the singularity.
Particle horizon of the observable universe
Main article: Cosmological horizon
The particle horizon of the observable universe is the boundary that represents the maximum distance at which events can currently be observed. For events beyond that distance, light has not had time to reach our location, even if it were emitted at the time the universe began. How the particle horizon changes with time depends on the nature of the expansion of the universe. If the expansion has certain characteristics, there are parts of the universe that will never be observable, no matter how long the observer waits for light from those regions to arrive. The boundary past which events cannot ever be observed is an event horizon, and it represents the maximum extent of the particle horizon...

Simply put - the Singularity has boundary, the Event Horizon, whilst outside is the boundless infinite space time continuum.
Inside the EH, remains to be seen or unseen, depending on how you look at it.

I have a feeling that People think that the singularity just produced galaxies, planets and stars. It seams like they think that the medium that makes up the Space beteen them were always there. Since they think it is infinite.edit on 27.06.08 by spy66 because: (no reason given)

I have not mentioned distance or to much about sapce. So i dont know why you can Call my view simplistic.
Your view on what the singularity is still wrong, and what every Source you read it from is wrong. Or you dont grasp Your own Source.
I do agree that the medium of Space between galaxies and stars and so on are expanding, and creating a greater distance between galaxies and stars.
But that medium of space is still a part of the finite singuilarity. If it was infinite like you say; What makes that medium of Space expand. There is got to be less pressure somewhere to make the medium of Space expand. But Your Sourse problably dont cover that part of the problem?

You are mistaken that "all religions speak non duality".
