I honestly don't see how there could not have been time before the big bang. It just doesn't seem possible that everything "wasn't" and in a split second (which apparently that second could not have been there' date=' if you're saying there wasn't time) and then everything "was." I just cannot fathom that concept of there being no time before the big bang.

 

If there was nothing before the big bang, what started the big bang? If there was no time or anything before the big bang, there could not have been anything to start the big bang.[/quote']

 

I have always found it quite hard to get my head round the idea that time has a beginning. But then again, the other option would seem to be that time is just infinite. Which means that if we ever needed to explain the pre-universe we may have a quite a big job on our hands. Does the idea that there has been an infinite number of reoccuring universes (or something-elses) for ever seem any less daunting to the imagination. I'm not sure which is worse.
