I think FT is saying that human conceptions of time don't apply to eternity. RugbyPlayingAshaman Send a noteboard - 22/04/2010 04:14:45 PM
It may be logical for humans with a limited lifespan, but for a being with the ability to be everywhere at once, exist at all times at once and etc., finding the "Beginning" is not so simple. That's the whole point of the Ouroboros spiral - there is no start and there is no end; the conceptions are one and the same to such a being.

I don't know that there could really be a first or last Age... Fanatic-Templar - 22/04/2010 07:48:11 AM 1068 Views
Yeah, it's the "third age"... DomA - 22/04/2010 02:13:56 PM 1068 Views
Difficult to see how you can refer to a billion people as a "fringe"... *NM* Shannow - 22/04/2010 05:02:08 PM 464 Views
You really think half of all christians believe that Earth is only 3000 years old? *NM* Japhy - 23/04/2010 12:35:01 AM 465 Views
Last I've heard, the majority of Christians weren't fundamentalists DomA - 23/04/2010 01:54:04 PM 909 Views
How about "living on the fringe of reality"? *NM* Marshall - 24/04/2010 10:21:17 PM 464 Views
That's not entirely right Etzel - 22/04/2010 03:54:23 PM 1004 Views

However, I think RJ definitely had an idea, what each Age of the 7 Ages is supposed to be. *NM* Etzel - 22/04/2010 09:53:20 PM 435 Views
I don't think so. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 22/04/2010 09:57:43 PM 891 Views
No, the point is... Etzel - 23/04/2010 10:06:03 AM 959 Views
Not sure what your point/question is. Doesn't seem like an issue to me quite frankly . RugbyPlayingAshaman - 26/04/2010 04:45:21 PM 976 Views
The question is... Etzel - 26/04/2010 05:08:48 PM 888 Views
I agree with FT RugbyPlayingAshaman - 26/04/2010 06:28:29 PM 1077 Views
Well, maybe. Fanatic-Templar - 22/04/2010 06:32:05 PM 955 Views
Doesn't make sense Etzel - 22/04/2010 09:51:55 PM 905 Views
Why? Fanatic-Templar - 22/04/2010 11:16:21 PM 912 Views
Ok File Leader - 23/04/2010 12:15:03 AM 925 Views
The question isn't if it would be possible for the Creator... Etzel - 23/04/2010 08:34:23 AM 927 Views
Yes, but as we also know from the cosmology of WoT... Fanatic-Templar - 23/04/2010 09:08:58 AM 1018 Views
Yeah... Etzel - 23/04/2010 10:03:19 AM 914 Views
Why must there have been such a thing? Fanatic-Templar - 23/04/2010 07:30:02 PM 934 Views
So, you believe there never was a first 1st Age? *NM* Etzel - 24/04/2010 08:55:45 AM 465 Views
Yes and no... Fanatic-Templar - 24/04/2010 10:55:02 PM 911 Views
Don't think so, but might be an interesting question for BS! *NM* Etzel - 25/04/2010 09:38:09 AM 471 Views
True that. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 25/04/2010 06:30:03 PM 498 Views
Yes there was a first age, no it is not a loop. Kieran - 23/04/2010 01:49:45 AM 963 Views
More change? Fanatic-Templar - 23/04/2010 05:03:22 AM 865 Views

Can't be... Etzel - 23/04/2010 08:27:29 AM 947 Views
Yeah, but Loial apparently read a copy of The Lord of the Rings somewhere... Fanatic-Templar - 23/04/2010 09:11:00 AM 984 Views
It's reversed... Etzel - 23/04/2010 10:10:56 AM 1046 Views
I doubt it, I don't have the books with me right now... Fanatic-Templar - 23/04/2010 07:31:34 PM 1044 Views
I don't think that's right. *NM* Etzel - 24/04/2010 08:57:45 AM 962 Views
You're right, that is not referenced in the book. Fanatic-Templar - 25/04/2010 06:34:29 PM 883 Views
