David...
> Congratulations!! Your continuum goes back to First Cause!!! Or is there an infinity back there, infinite regression? Not possible if we rule out Multiverse. The Big Bang is an origin, as I believe Alex Vilenkin just told us that at Hawking's 70 B'day party. So get off your fence and recognize FC, thanks to Aristotle, refined by St. Tom.-Not so fast.... I bought that book about timelessness and started reading it last night... not only do I have some revisions I need to make about the "unreality" of past and the future, Einstein's position was even more radical than I had originally thought...-He thought that the past, the present, and the future truly exist simultaneously, that any and all concepts we have about time as a sequence or a flow can be violated by relativity... [Meaning, the idea of a first-cause is irrelevant... the answer to "why is there something rather than nothing" is additionally abrogated because "nothing" IS "something."]-dhw, I will owe you a book-length reply,
 so sit tight...-[EDITED]

\"Why is it, Master, that ascetics fight with ascetics?\"

\"It is, brahmin, because of attachment to views, adherence to views, fixation on views, addiction to views, obsession with views, holding firmly to views that ascetics fight with ascetics.\"
