Once you believe that God exists, you don't have to worry about questions like this.

But you think the question of god's existence is answerable? Explain. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

No, I don't think its answerable, but I think it is reasonable to believe in God.

"Most of the Christians I know do not think these people have silly beliefs."

That's because you are defining "silly" to be non serious. But if you define "silly" to mean "pretty obviously not true" then Christians must take this position if they are do declare their beliefs pretty obviously true.

I'm pretty sure that the question what happened the day before the universe was created is not a well formed question, similar to how high is up, or where are numbers located.

I assumed that whenMaurile used the word silly he was implying that they would not be worthy of debate. I don't think this is hte case for most Christians I know. If this was a bad assumption then I owe an apology for being snippy.

why?

What a lot of the posters are saying is that science has already answered the question and the answer is that the question is meaningless. 'Time' only came into existence at the singularity point of the big bang - or in layman's terms when the Universe came into existence. There is no such thing as 'before' this.

As to the question of 'God', you'll find that science's official answer to that is it is an imaginary creation of the human mind.

What happened 50 kilometres before the 100-metre starting line?

Does it affect what happened in the 100-metre dash?? Does it exist at all, as far as the 100-metre dash is concerned?

Another option :
Time began when the universe began. There was no "day" or "time" before the universe began.

Time was a man made thing. think about it. there really is no such thing as time.
