Sorry it's so hard to figure out what the **** I'm talking about, it's hard to word it in a non-confusing way.

It's not infinite in that sense.
Think of the Big Bang. All matter started at one point and then exploded, pushing all matter outward. So the Universe is constantly expanding. What's weird is it's speeding up in it's expansion.
A true mind**** is that the Earth is the center of the observable Universe, as is every point in the Universe....
