I think the concept of "unbounded Now" dropped on the floor somewhere along the line. Would it not be better to say that the entire universe (including the entirety of our time) "is being" created? Of course this leaves open the question: By whom? Is God doing all the work or are we helping in this creation? Go to it, Jon and David (sounds almost like something out of I Samuel!). -- -- Jeff Sargent {allegra|ihnp4|decvax|harpo|seismo|teklabs|ucbvax}!pur-ee!pucc-h:aeq ...drifting along with the tumbling terminals....
