That you provided an answer is not the same as answering the question.
Your questions:
Did the universe have a beginning? Is the universe infinite?
My answers:
The universe occasionally has singularities which, depending on which side of them you are on temporally, may appear to be beginnings or ends and so might as well be considered so for our purposes because we cannot penetrate them.
I believe that the universe (matter and the space that contains it) is "infinite" in the sense that there is an infinite amount of space for things to occupy. However, I believe that the amount of things is finite. However, I also believe that you can break things into infinitely small parts, so in a sense the amount of things is infinite as well.
This is what I've already said, so I'd love to know how these are not answers to your questions.
My first question was of the yes or no variety. As was the second.
That you chose, instead, to be pedantic indicates you are waffling. The highlighted parts above are qualifiers. The use of a qualifier is not enough to indicate dishonesty. The use of eight, in such a short passage, is a cluster of high significance.
So you answered a yes or no question with at least 8 qualifiers, and expect this to treated as an honest response?
