The first moment in time still needs to come to be.
Yeah there was a first moment... but that's different to saying there was ever a time before time began. Nothing happened before time. Happening is temporal.
The first moment was the beginning.
In a way, it's all timeless and we seem to only define time into existence. The way I see it, either presentism is true or time is an illusion. We just label things whatever way. But then, seen as we are already using those labels... I can't see any way of making sense of the idea that the past and the future exist now. Now seems by definition not past or yet to come.
