The points you make are very silly. Finally, if the universe was infinite, there would not have to be a place where the universe didn't exist. That is only one possibility. That would be like skipping the number '4' in an infinite string of numbers (1,2,3,5,6...). Anyway, even if there was a spot where the universe did not exist, why would it not work? It would be like a bubble of nothing, I suppose. The universe could still extend infinitely around it.
Thirdly, the Big Bang is seen as the creation of the universe. In an infinite universe, that wouldn't make sense. Perhaps the Big Bang simply created all matter and all energy. An infinite amount.
Thirdly, the work people have done to show the universe is expanding has not been by measuring a boundary; that would be nigh impossible. What they have done is show that things (galaxies and stuff) are moving further and further apart, which is pretty siolid proof that the universe is expanding. But things could still move apart in an infinite universe, no?
As a second note, I would like to say I do not believe the infinite universe theory. But I would really like to.
Proving Pixies wrong didn't require as much space as I would have liked. So, to make the post look longer, here is an amusing picture.
