I find it funny that ancient alien theorists believe that DNA is much to complicated to have occurred by chance; thus aliens must have somehow interfered(by mixing their DNA with ours.) But, this leads me to ask what then would account for the complexity of the aliens' DNA. All I truly know is that no matter which questions we answer, we will always finding other exponentially more difficult questions to answer.
the origins of it all is most definitely beyond my ken, nor do I find trying to get a handle on it something worth pursuing - I can't accept the creationists' account 'cause it simply doesn't wash (for me) & it seems each free think has their own idea, which is fine - I don't think we'll ever get to the bottom of this - we'll just enjoy and/or argue the topic til the cows come home & we're all dead-n-gone - on to part 3 - still fun, F ! ; ) MM
Dear Honored Sir; This is the essence of philosophy.Interaction with time and acquiring knowledge.I agree;time has always been.Stephen Hawking's black hole research suggests a singularity that gives birth to multiple big bangs.Astrophysicists carry the argument further and imply a multiverse as opposed to the universe.Recent studies have found super massive black holes at the center of most galaxies.These giants are thought to be fundamental to galaxy formation,possibly universe formation.
Some great thoughts on time/knowledge here, Ferrick. If you haven't already, be sure to check out chapter 10 in vol. 1 of Das Kapital, in which Marx discusses the working day. It deals quite a bit with the relationship between time and value.

Love your comment on "something existing from nothing" which I believe
to be a 100% non scientific idea. That's the scientific equivalent of genesis.
So if a scientist tells you this, he must believe in God NO DOUBT!
Because this is the exact description of God in most holy scriptures.
"The creator" "The all knowing" "the all perceiving"
To say the universe just shit itself into being from absolute nothing is unscientific
and a complete cop out!
However, here we are and in God I do believe.
