Which is why a infinite universe in expansion is possible.

Are dark forces directly related to mass? Because if mass constantly increases, then a crunching will occur. The issue in this case being where the crunching may occur, in an infinite universe, I would imagine that this will result in multiple local crunchings.
You misunderstood my post. You were saying:

At least, if we aren't assuming that our infinite universe is infinitely growing, however, the issue then is that this assumption would have to assume that *large* amounts of matter are emerging unnoticed.
So I assume that you had playing with the idea of a "eternal universe", which was the idea the astronoms got of the universe before the big-bang theory take over. For such a idea to work they had to assume such a creation of matters, what I give is likely to be the results of their calculations.
By the way, do you missed the link of my precedent post?

I feel like I'm King Arthur listening to a discussion about swallows and coconuts. 
Not that that's a bad thing right now. I hope you enjoy your discussion.
But the concept I'm talking about is eternal life through another universe's birth. If the universe is born over and over, how much sense would it make to say that we would be stuck being ourselves for the rest of eternity? Surely we don't want that to happen. This terrifying version of 'Asperger's Syndrome' in which we might never grasp the importance of others' consciousness seems too awful to be true.
