Whilst not blindly believing anything that has not been well and truly proven,
I am prepared to believe that because so many things about our universe
are so incredible [unimaginable speeds, densities, sizes, temperatures etc:]
that virtually anything is possible, including inflation. If I remember rightly,
quantum physics does not prohibit in principal, something being created from nothing. I personally tend to favour a finite universe with a definite beginning.
