Looks like some scientists are finally realizing the nonsense of continuum mechanics and infinitisemals. Black holes don't exist, at least not in the traditional understanding of black holes. It turns out that they have finite density after all, and gravitational collapse stops right on the surface of the event horizon. There is no infinitely dense singularity.
So much for the set of real numbers. YHWH sure doesn't need them.

Hawking has been wrong before, i.e. his claim that there is no afterlife. Science has proven and documented reincarnation, i.e. Dr. Ian Stevenson and Dr. Jim B. Tucker at Univ. of Virginia, Dr. Brian Weiss, book 'Soul Survivor', Carol Bowman, 'Reincarnation Theory & its 23 Principles/Theory of Luck (ex. Einstein returned as Watson)', etc. . This universe was created by the Big Bang (a supermassive white-hole) 13.82 billion-years ago which was the direct result of a supermassive black-hole in another universe within The Conglomerate of Nonparallel-Universes (multiverse). This 'simple' cause-and-effect hypothesis using the duality of these two singularities is accepted by the majority of astrophysicists; it neatly explains infinite space and infinite time/eternity. This universe and that SBH share the same boundary. Now whether that boundary is correctly described as an 'event horizon' or as Hawking recommends an 'apparent horizon' is the question! Since there is an energy and information transfer in the process of SBH Big Banging into a new universe, possibly 'apparent horizon' is the best term. However, event horizon redefined as permitting energy and information to (eventually) escape from it would also work dictionary-wise.
