Give up on the argument for time. We measure time by the spinning of the earth. Our most accurate way of measuring time is an atomic clock, it measures how many atomic particles are given of by a decaying sample of radioactive material, when so many particles have been lost--we say a certain amount of time has passed--rather crude really. We have even developed convoluted methods to use light as a clock, however, under different conditions (gravity for one) or though different materials not even light always travels at the same speed, and theoretical physicists already know light may move at, at least slightly different speeds in different parts of the universe. Anyway, what all these methods have in common are movement, even the atomic particles moving away from the radioactive sample. If you attempt to capture time in a bottle you only end up with a moving object in that bottle... .... there is absolutely no such thing as time, it is a figment of our imagination which allows you to get to work on "time"--time is very useful--but time is not real ...

If it had no beginning, the it just "was". If it did indeed have a beginning, the what was before that? Since there was no universe, there was no time. If there was no time, there obviously was no "before". If there were no time, then there could never have been anything, since it would take even the smallest fraction of time for the "big bang" to begin. |
