Infinity and Eternity: An Atheistic Perspective on the Divine

From the perspective of atheistic views, the idea of God as an entity beyond space and time is often seen not as a description of a supernatural principle but rather as a philosophical concept that can be equated with the objective qualities of the material reality itself—infinite space and eternal time. In this context, the non-believing mind acknowledges that our understanding of reality is determined by the dimensions available to our consciousness, and that the concepts of “infinity” and “eternity” describe objective characteristics of existence rather than indicating the presence of a transcendent creator.

Thus, as indicated in one of the sources:"How can one acknowledge the unfathomable?
After all, we all recognize something as existing only to the extent that it can be grasped by the mind? In no way. There is something entirely real that the non-believing mind accepts as existing and yet cannot deem unfathomable. Namely, the infinity of space and the eternity of time." (source: link txt)

This citation emphasizes that even if a person does not believe in God as a supernatural personality, they still acknowledge the existence of boundless space and endless time. Therefore, in the atheistic understanding, the properties traditionally attributed to God—an existence beyond space and time—can be regarded as simply special aspects of the objective world, accessible to cognition through reason without the need to enter the realm of religious thought.

This attitude reflects the view that, for non-believers, the concept of “God as existing outside space and time” does not imply a supernatural agent but serves as a metaphorical description of the qualities that characterize the material world and are a result of our intellectual experience and cognitive apparatus.
