Is there anything about a universe that extends infinitely into the past from having a 'now'? Doesn't if have to have one? If there can be a 'now' in a universe that is past infinite, that's 'when' we are. If there can't be a 'now' in a past infiinite universe, why not? Is a past infinite universe one in which nothing can ever happen?
I think this is like Zeno's paradoxes in the sense that we perceive a seeming paradox that doesn't prevent the thing from actually existing. In any instant of an arrow's path, it's motionless, but it still reaches the target; there are an infinite number of points before Achilles passes the tortoise, but he still passes the tortoise.

I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
