And to my knowledge there can't be a before time.

Oh yeah? Then where did they film The Land Before Time? Checkmat

I like how there are at least three things that are immediately recognizable as wrong with this question.

[-] Aurenkin@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 year ago

Well, everyone has a skill I guess

[-] Mac@mander.xyz 1 points 10 months ago

those are some egregious claims to not have a source.

Well, yes and no. Time is a concept derived from a change in state. There is no “real” time. If the universe before the Big Bang existed in a static state, then the concept of time itself becomes meaningless. So in that case, it would be “before time” in a sense

[-] bastion@feddit.nl 6 points 1 year ago

The state cannot have been absolutely static - if it was, the big bang would not have occurred, and the same stasis would be existing now, unchanged.

Time is an illusion

It's just a human made concept to create a reference to measure shit

[-] bastion@feddit.nl 9 points 1 year ago

Time is change, and exists whether or not we measure it.

[-] efstajas@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Absolutely not, time doesn't give a shit about humans, and would happily pass without any conscious observer at all anywhere in the universe.

Duh, spacetime is a casual filter.
