Arguments for God's Existence from Contingency

[RoadRunner79]

In all honesty I thought you were disagreeing with him and agreeing with me here, RR. So I don't think it's a matter of Tizheruk not looking at what he was attacking, because I was confused by what you were trying to say as well :

I don't see how you can get away from the above, if you are postulating an infinite regress.

If you're suggesting that an infinite regress means that times run two ways at once then I have no idea how you reach that conclusion. That seems like a total non-sequitur. Whether the universe is finite or infinite has no bearing over time moves more than one way or not, and if time moves more than one way then we aren't actually talking about what we call "time", what we call time is a concept that speaks of things that happened, are happening and will happen, and those 3 kinds of things (The Happened, The Happening and The Will Happen) are respectively the past, present and future.

If time goes on without boundary into the past, then there is always more past prior to any given point.  It is part of you saying that it is infinite in the direction of the past, and that it goes on without end.  How do say that it is infinite, and that it does not proceed forever into the past.
