..but, again, the Bible is not the start of time. Nor is it the start of God. It was the start of man.

God had arms when he created man. He created man with arms to hug God back after he has hugged us.

...seriously?

That's what you're going with?

..that leaves a new section open for onslaught.

Of course we have arms for other purposes, didn't mean that's the key reason we have arms.

if Time did not start in Genesis 1:1.....then when did time start

I can't wait for this answer...clearly it will point to delusion

I think God is just a ball of light.
From this ball, he can take any form he so desires.

Among his travels and creations, he took the form of what we now refer to as a 'human'. This was the form he found most comfortable.

Thus, he created humans, not only in his image.. but his favorite image. Thus why we are (or supposed to be) the top of the food chain and the dominant species of the planet.

But, apparently, that idea doesn't work in the eyes of someone.. or someone's someones, I should say. -.-

in religion the bible has to indicate the start of time....or it becomes a book of untruth......so I ask you the same qurestion that I asked Cowboy

according to the bible...when did time start

I have no idea when "time" started. We are not given that knowledge.

Dude..you have to lay off watching Chick Flicks

Why would we have to be informed of the start of time? What would be the purpose? What would be of any gain by allowing us the knowledge of the beginning of time?

You're delusion to think time would have started in Genesis 1.

If you go by Genesis, God just appeared out of the blue, and started the world. No, that's bogus, nor how the Bible is actually meant to portray him.

So, here is your answer, listen carefully.

Time, as a concept, began when man put a word to denote it. The rotation of the Earth, day and night; but God himself, has no concepts of this; therefore, time to Him doesn't exist.

Therefore, time to us, began billions, upon billions of years ago; which can time-stamp. However, before the universe itself existed, who is to say God himself did not exit yet?

So, to fully answer your question:

What defines time in your mind?

but you are given common sense...use it any figure out the time line

And where do you get this idea God is nothing more then a ball of light? Where have you been informed of this? Not denying it, just curious where you find this information.

What does common sense and the start of time have to do with one another?

Cowboy...stop making excuses...if you don't know the answer then move on

if you have to ask...then you lack it

If you define time as:

"The creation of the Earth."

Then the answer would be 4.6 Billion Years ago.

If you speak of God's age, like any other human, I doubt he would just walk up to (or float over to)Adam and say, 'Hey Adam, I'm God. I'm 47. Trillion Years Old and fatherless. Wanna check out my garden?'

I mean, if God joined Mingle, maybe we'd know how old he is..

No excuses made, only asked questions that you obviously can not answer. If you can not answer the questions posed, the why respond to the comment with a bogus statement?

If you can not answer then obviously you lack it.

Inner knowledge. Concept. Logic.

It explains how 'God can take many forms'.
It also explains how he could travel from universe, to universe, with little to no trouble and would also go almost entirely unnoticed by human eye and/or telescopes.
It explains also that he has 'no need' for arms or legs, but also explained why he 'created us in his image'. That was the image he had taken at the time.

Furthermore, it's why no one has ever been able to truly define or draw a picture of what God looks like; simply because most only ever saw His image in other things.
