There was a time before there was time. There was a moment that lasted billions of years before there was a sun and a moon to define our seasons and weeks. There was a time when millennia, and centuries, and decades, and years, and months, and weeks, and days, and hours, and minutes, and seconds, and even nanoseconds had no meaning or measurement. Then there was that instant when a point of particularity became so dense that it exploded in on itself in the Big Bang. That is one of the stories of the Creation, but we know that it is not the only one.
