>>Ralphd2: Please explain: 2)-"since the universe began at an instant of time, there must be a time before time, and an existence before reality"
TA<<
time and space are the same, just different flavors of the same thing.
without matter/energy, space/time is an invalid concept.
before the big bang, what exsisted?
was everything compressed into a single point of non exsistance?
was there truly No things?
immediately prior to the beginning of spacetime, DID anything exsist?
or did we explode out if the nothingness into somethingness?
prior to the observable universe's creation, we have a few options
1> nothing exsisted, and the first law of thermodynamics is violated as it is created. (ie. something for nothing)
2> some other universe experienced it's last death-throes, and collapses to an undefinably small, infinitely dense point. (from which we all explose out of fractionally later).
3> the creator said "lets do something completely different" to the assembled unity of the goodhood, and decided to start reality as we know it.
4> put your best guess here. |
