Well then we should know the answer, because the chicken/egg thing has been resolved.
Chicken and egg debate unscrambled
It was the egg.
Wait, what was the question?

Wait scientists actually took the moment to publish their findings on researching this question?
I thought it was always just an approach to asking the question
"Creationism or Evolution?"

Mmh. Job 41:1, Psa 74:14, Psa 104:26, Isa 27:1 make a couple of mentions of Leviathan and Job 40:15 mentions the Behemoth but that's about as close as you're gonna get I'm afraid. *shrug*
Yay carniverous kangeroo  Like a giant vampire bunny right?

I assure you, Agamemnon, I do not mean this as any kind of mockery or attack.
(Similar to my question of whence "Omnipotence")
Why would you say that God is outside of time? And not just why would you say it, but why would you think it? I cannot figure out where this kind of concept came from, and why anyone would even be interested in it, much less convinced by it. |

The standard explanation here is that either God (the christian guy) created the earth (6000 years ago) to look like it was billions of years old (to test our faith, of course) or that the world was actually created (again, 6000 years ago) as being billions of years old.

I'm just guessing here, but if he created time he must have already had some existence outside of time.

Eh, not so much a test of faith as fallout from the results of the Flood. I don't wanna bore everybody with details though unless somebody really wants to hear it (most don't ...and I'm lazy  ).

Hole in one.

This isn't really an answer - it just pushes things back a level. There is the implicit question: "Why would you guess/imagine that He created time?"
The idea of time being created is also inherently problematic, since the entire concept of creating is temporal, so cannot exist outside of time. |

If you want to talk about time and outside of time, here is something to bend your brain into twisty bits:
"Want to break your brain? Click on this site, and then click 'imagining the ten dimensions'. If any physicists out there want to call bunk on this, feel free..."
Thanks to Aaron Williams of Nodwick.com for pointing this out. It's awesome. I think I'll post it on the physics thread too....
