lol all fucking theories none of which have been proven...I would rather believe the stories of the bible over the bullshit spewed out by NASA and the "scientific community"
A quick Google search for "proof of general relativity" gives you this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tests_of_general_relativity#Classical_tests
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tests_of_general_relativity#Modern_tests
Googling "proof of universe expansion" gives you this:
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/aso/databank/entries/dp29hu.html

Don't mistake laziness for lack of proof. At one point in time, the hypothesis that the moon was created by a collision of 2 planets, which would later become one planet, Earth, was looked at as pretty out there with no proof. A HYPOTHESIS is something we THINK may have happened, but have no solid proof. Then after moon rocks were brought back with Apollo 11, we compared the samples to earth rock samples, and found they had the same basic consistency, hence moving the hypothesis to a THEORY. Don't mistake THEORIES with "guesses." If something is a theory, there is proof of it. If something is a hypothesis, we go through the scientific process to either prove or disprove it. Plenty of hypotheses have been disproved, but the ones which have been proved, they become theories.

If the Universive is expanding then what's on the outside?  Nothing?  What's it expanding into?  Nothing?  Does nothing turn into something?

We don't know. That's why we're still researching it.

I'm not going to upload physics books here. These websites just compress all that info into digestible reading. If you want to go deeper feel free to search Springer or some other academic library.

Obviously. The universe is cool.....even cooler than an anticipated Kevin Levrone comeback..... ;)

Springer is mostly paywalled, Arxiv.org would be more useful.

Yeah forgot about that. I get full access because I'm working on a master's degree. Thanks for the correction.

Will it expand forever?  Is there an eventual wall?  Is it like a pebble growing inside a basketball eventually going to hit it's limit?  Doesn't science claim the big bang will eventually hit a limit then start collapsing back in which is called the big crunch?  Is the universe expanding in all directions at the same rate?  Is is symmetrical?  Is the Flex Wheeler of universes? Are there other universes doing the same?  Is Heath still 0.7 width of the average human?

Scientist don't, and never will, have all the answers. Religious people don't either. But by god they'll insult each other to the bitter end about what the other side thinks and how it's wrong.

Well... in this case one side IS wrong. One side (science) looks for objective answers by studying the natural world, while religions look into a text written by goat herders. I tend to lean on the side of science on this one.
