exellent...no problem...Yes, i think we are on a similar page when it comes to the current parradigm of the cosmos, thats why i will entertain the idea of the earth being younger then 5000 years( i may not believe the theory, ) but i will entertain the idea, and certainly don't take any FACT for granted..It is crackpots that change paradigms, and intellectual discussion and debate can only serve to aid the crackpots in there articualtion and continuation of there proposed idea's..I love your energy pressure/gravity theory, and have enjoyed the p[laces it has taken my mind..lol...sometimes it only takes a simple statement to start the mind boggling and bouncing through some crazzy and whacky ideas..I too don't see a need for a day 1..that's not to say the evidance doesn't point to one, but i see no need for timeline to start anywhere or end anywhere...i would be more leaning towards a loop, or a circle, perhaps the big bang was the result of a big crunch, the big coming together of all the matter in the universe under its gravity and reaching a critical energy matter singularity and resulting in a massive explosion, and in time it may all happen again??mabye its happend countless times in the past and will keep happening exactly the same way in the future...we know nothing can be made or destroyed, only changed....
I will end with this bold statement...matter can not exist without time...my real passion is in the understanding of time and how it works..
