I have considered that possibility before. Is it expanding as an organism does? But still, why, from our perspective, does it have to be so big?
Size is entirely dependent upon perspective. Maybe it's not so big after all. Maybe it is just us, whom are very very small.

Maybe.... Maybe not. That is an assumption, and nothing more.

Although unpredictably wondrous, the universe seems to be a pretty logical place. It has laws, constants, and organization. It has a rulebook. Mechanisms such as physics and chemistry cannot be argued with. From the smallest subatomic particles to the largest supercluster galaxies, there are rules, there is order, there is logic.

If there should be a "wall" at some point.. there must be something behind it
if one would suggest the universe curves into a ball.. whats outside the ball ?
infinity..
Well, one way or the other, something's gotta give! I'm getting impatient with my limited perspective.
I wouldn't go as far to say it has rules based on our understanding of Physics and Chemistry. We don't really know truths, we just have theories that are disproved yearly.

Intelligent? or wasteful?
If God created the universe why is it so big? We don't need the space. It's cool to look at but that's about it.
