However, I point you to temporal finitism, and the proposition that If time had no beginning how do we get to the present by succesive addition from an infinite past. | |

Your entire premise is bunk, as there are models of reality, particularly conformal cyclic models, where there is no earliest time. Instead, what we perceive as the beginning of time is merely the beginning of the current inflationary regime within our locally observable universe. The universe could be expanding forever, without beginning or end, giving rise to physics as energy self-interacts across expanding spacetime. | |
