Impossible to ask a question like this and not bring God into the answers.
Rephrasing my previous post here and please note the bold part;
''I used the word "nothing" to mean both as a void and also as being the cause of 'something'. What I mean to say is that the beginning of time there was a void, then something came to occupy the void without cause- 'nothing'.
I am merely proposing that we place the void as the beginning of time since nothing comes before a void. What follows of course is that existence came to occupy the void by "nothing". ''
Magical Time is a concept in which a being can exist, move about and have a non-sequential relationship with real time. It is how supernatural beings are able to exist "outside of time". It defies the laws of Nature and, therefore, doesn't exist.
Real time is the natural order of time. It exists in the sequential order of past to present to future. It is so incorporated into the Natural universe that we cannot even make a statement without some reference to time. For instance, the simple statement "I am" has a reference to the present time. Therefore, I suggest not to bring a supernatural being in to this discussion.
