I know about that with Christianity, but I can't logically wrap my head around the concept of there not being a beginning and something always having existed. I mean if I die and Christianity turns out to be true, and I get to speak to god, i'm going to have to ask him what his earliest memory is. You're still trying to think about the GOD with the mindset of a HUMAN. In the Christian canon, he's not merely human (people were merely made "in his image."). So, there is no real "memory" with him in the canon. With omniscience he sees it all, at once (what has taken place, and what hasn't yet taken place). Time itself is irrelevant to him, since a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like a day (see 2 Peter 3:8 for reference). Simply put, he CREATED "time" as we know it, and he's not bound by it. The biggest problem with people's understanding of the Christian God is that they don't think of him as a God. Rather they think of him as just another Man who happens to have a whole lotta power. You're going to run into some serious issues with that mindset. --- Money is overrated... ...
