The Origin of Time
If time did in fact have a beginning, how could that possibly be possible?
Time is simply put, the measurement of movement through time. Thus if there is such a thing as the beginning of time, there must be such a thing as being outside of time. Einstein's Theory of Relativity states that the closer to the speed of light, the slower time gets. There is a reason that light is the fastest speed known to man. We may know that it is possible to have a faster speed (a black hole is gravity so strong it sucks in even the light that strays it's way), but light is the fastest observable entity within our purview. (Yes, there is much we still do not know.) The idea is that once the speed of light is met, or surpassed, in relation to the rest of reality, time stops. But time is relative in that the object moving at the speed of light moves at normal time, by the second, but in respect to the rest of reality around that object, it would then be going so fast that all else would in all practical purposes stop. Completely. To the molecular level.
So, with the impetus of the probability of possibility laid out, namely that our 4th dimension - time - can idealistically be surpassed, how could it be possible that time had a beginning?
Time is the measurement of movement through space. For there to be no time, all that would necessarily be would be absolutely no physical movement - being absolutely technical. For time to begin, well an object in motion remains in motion and an object at rest remains at rest...... unless an outside force acts upon it.
Thus the simply construct must be built that there is a being, a force, a substance that inhabits the 4th dimension - meaning there is some-thing that is outside of time itself. This outside force could therefore start movement, start time, thus in essence create all things.
But being outside of time, this being would potentially be able to be at all places within less than one of our seconds. This being could also potentially move through time as we move through space, thus be at all times with little effort. This accrued, this being could be said to hold omnipotence - to be at all places at once. Having omnipotence, this being could hold omniscience - to know all things. And being the impetus of all things, more than likely the creator of all things but regardless of that supposition, it would have the ability to do anything - both inside and outside time - thus omnipotent, or all powerful.
This omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent being is what a lot of people tend to like to call God....
