[QUOTE="Sleeker, post: 32282534, member: 153026"] You're not getting the relation. If WWI happened [I]before[/I] WWII, the "before" implies that time existed at both points and can be expressed on a timeline. [B]"Before" means that time had to have existed at the moment of the first event.[/B] There can be no "before time" because that means that the first event happened when time did not yet exist, contradicting the bolded statement. If you know easy math, read the next sentence. Asking what's "before time" is like asking what x is equal to when: -1=|x| This is like your letter analogy. Which [I]letter[/I] is before A? Answer in terms of letters only. "Intelligence" is not a letter, and therefore, not an applicable answer. So again, which[I] letter [/I]comes before A? Answer with letters only. [/QUOTE]
