Well, it's been an interesting topic guys and serves beautifully to demonstrate mans pre-ocupation with measurement. For that's what time is, simply a measure of sequence, as is space. And we debate extensively how to measure it. We measure to give benchmarks by which we can create an understanding or explanation. We percieve things sequentially. Perhaps one thing we can never measure is infinity? Perhaps infinity is not sequential? Can sequential time exist within infinity or vice versa? haha

How does pre-destination sit with the measurement of time? Do we have choice or are our choice results all pre-determined. If pre-determined then our future choices exist now and are therefore within infinity and, effectively, irrelevant to the sequential measurement of time. So, do we have choice or do we simply think we have choice simply because the pre-determined sequntial event doesn't appear to have arrived yet? Do we have choice and do we have freedom or do those things already exist within the existemce of infinity? Does infinity exist? We can never know because we can never measure it.

Can we measure from Big bang as being the start of the sequence? There must have been something to bang in order for big bang to occur, so what pre-existed big bang? Where was the start? Or was there a start? And if there was no start can there be an end? And if there was no start and no end, can there be a sequence within it?

However, we perceive sequence and so starting and ending is our reality and infinity cannot exist. So, where did it all begin?

Is this the point at which man created god? ;)
