probably. Ed is right about everything, he has the phenotype.

maybe he is referencing this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hartle%E2%80%93Hawking_state

>Hartle and Hawking suggest that if we could travel backwards in time towards the beginning of the Universe, we would note that quite near what might otherwise have been the beginning, time gives way to space such that at first there is only space and no time. According to the Hartle–Hawking proposal, the Universe has no origin as we would understand it: the Universe was a singularity in both space and time, pre-Big Bang. However, Hawking does state "...the universe has not existed forever. Rather, the universe, and time itself, had a beginning in the Big Bang, about 15 billion years ago.", but that the Hartle-Hawking model is not the steady state Universe of Hoyle; it simply has no initial boundaries in time or space.

How can I hope to be right on something Ed is wrong on other than by accident?

>> No.11116939

>>11116848
Change must happen in a medium. However time as we experience it doesn't exist, you've got that right.

So time exists. Got it.
