Christian in need of help (feeling uneasy about God quote)!!

what does being outside of time mean to you? being retarded?

Imagine a dvd representing the whole of time. now imagine on that dvd you know it's contents like any favorite movie. now take the dvd outside the player and place it on the table. You are now outside the "time line" of the dvd. did you suddenly become retarded (anymore than normal I mean?) What I am asking now just because you do not live at any central point on that dvd does it mean you know any less or more of the history on that dvd?

Now to answer a couple others with the same analogy imagine on the same dvd everything had a creation or birthing point of some kind. Now if you created the DVD would your creation then also be required to be on that DVD? No As you and your origins are pre time. As I said the DVD contains all of time and if you have it then you are outside of that time line, that dimension.

It's so funny when I see Christians explaining God as living "outside time and space".

When you think that by the time the book of Genesis was written people used to believe that the earth was flat, that the sun circled around the earth, and that the blood of goats appeased angry gods. Yeah, surely back then people revelled in the theory of relativity and were meditating upon the space-time continuum.

If god were real you'd expect the bible to read something like "in the first femtosecond I decided to make the universe on Newtonian lines, in the second I looked at quantuum mechanics and decided to go that way, in the third I got bored and said'yerra fuck it, a perplexing mish-mash of both systems will do fine'".
