Righto! If there is no time, there is no before and after.
Actually, there are some physicists who believe that time is purely a
human construct and does not exist outside of our minds. I believe
it was Scientific American that devoted a large portion of an issue
two or three years ago to those physicists and their theories. In
their viewpoint there is no past, no future, just an ever-present
now. All questions of origins are meaningless in such a universe.
