Debate: Is it possible for God to be timeless? (view source)
Revision as of 12:15, October 23, 2008

To me, it seems not. I see time as a continuum and the medium through which causality can exist. If you take away time, you take away all means of causality and thus in this way you cannot have a God who lacks time and yet still causes physical events.

== Yes ==
I used to think of time that way as well, but the theory of relativity appears to disagree: time is a dimension in which one can move, just like spatial ones. So if we believe that God can exist in all places, He could (must?) exist in all times as well.
I should point out that I have no evidence for this, but thinking of it that way helps me to organise my thoughts, such as they are.--[[User:CPalmer|CPalmer]] 08:15, 23 October 2008 (EDT)
