Implies all of time exists at once.  That is one huge assertion.  Evidence?

Quote:The whole of time consists of every point of time.
If every point of time had to come into being, then the whole of time had to come into being. (1 and 2).


Why?  Time happens moment by moment.  Only now is known to exist.


Quote:Time is temporal and came into being.
Quote:Further argument:

Time couldn't have come from nothing.

That is one huge assertion.  Evidence?

Quote:Time could only have came into being from an eternal existence.

That is one huge assertion.  Evidence?

Quote:Time coming into being from eternal existence requires will as it's cannot be inevitable outcome from a material existence.

That is one huge assertion.  Evidence?

Quote:Whatever caused time has to have immense power.
Quote:The eternal existence is the creator of time and has immense power

All based on your assertions that you have not provided any support for.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
