like people always say how short life is.............which is true, but we'll say the average human life span is 70 years. That is about .0000000047% of the time since the universe began............

now compare that to our size in the universe. The average person is probably 5'7" 165lbs roughly. That is probably about .0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 000001% of all space in universe.

It's probably much bigger than that, and that would just be judging by the farthest stars we can measure. Scientists stilll don't know if the universe is finite or not. If it was infinite, you would go decimal point infinite # of zero's to get accurate comparison. Whoa, gnarly dude.
Logically, the universe has to be finite if you believe in the big bang theory, which most scientists do. Most scientist can only make theories based on the big bang if they assume the universe to be finite.

There really isn't a point to attempting to understand what happens outside of our known universe while basing logic on known universal laws, because outside of the universe, those laws would not apply.
So what you get is basically a scientific logic that is contained within this universe.
Not that it's limited, because as you've said, the universe sure is a big motherfucker.
