[QUOTE="Sinai, post: 194034, member: 1828"] [b][i]NOTE: Theyre here's original post is in regular font, while Sinai's response is in boldface.[/i][/b][i][/i] Great job in summarizing those points. I lean toward cyclic cosmology. While I think there was indeed a pretty big bang, it was not the start of all, just the start of the universe's current cycle. From that perspective, the universe is ageless, and time is immaterial. [b]Although a minority position at the present time, you can find several scientists--including a few who are rather well known--who hold similar views.[/b] Time is an interested concept. I doubt we humans have the capacity for thought required to understand the fullness of the concept of time and how it relates to the universe. If there is a God (I lean toward not), time is likely not an issue for such a being. [b]I believe there is a God, but agree that time (and other dimensions that limit us, for that matter) does not appear to be an issue for Him, nor does it appear to limit Him.[/b] The earth is very old, and the universe is much, much older. A young earth, or even not-real-old-earth, simply doesnt fit the overwhelming observable evidence. [b]I tend to agree.[/b] One could easily say that an all-powerful supernatural being could make the effort to create an old appearing universe but to what end and why? [b]You'll have to ask someone who believes that theory. Perhaps someone reading this [i]does[/i] believe that, and will answer the question.[/b] [/QUOTE]
