All [[laws]], [[organizations]], [[administration]], and the [[testimony]] of [[universe]] [[explorers]]—[[everything]] points to the [[existence]] of an [[infinite]] [[God]] but, as yet, a [[finite]] [[universe]], a [[circularity]] of endless [[existence]], well-nigh limitless but, nevertheless, [[finite]] in [[contrast]] with [[infinity]].
