Before the Big Bang time did not exist. Time is only a by product of the universe. That is why it has a finite age.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24312935 Yup.
Before it only probability fields existed in flux.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29395313 That stirs the question about What is the flux made of and its properties , never mind When it did came about into existence .
But before that , in all fairness , please point to any errors in the logic below , because if you can not than the Age of the Universe doesn't really has a number , it's infinite .
I know , it takes a while to get used to the Feel but Otherway we would have to accept that Something can be made from Nothing ... I rather accept the imaculate logic and an infinite Universe instead :
1) Nothing can be created from Nothingness ( or , Somethingness can not be created from Nothingness )
2) the # 1 statement is true since for-ever , since Eternity , since an infinite time ( never was possible to make Something from Nothing )
3) Hence the Age of Somethingness ( the Universe included ) is also Eternity , infinite time . QED
As I asked before , can you deduce another Major property of the Universe from those three steps ?
It has to do with the Size of the Universe ...
