Because there was no beginning, there will be no end. No finite number of time is more than a drop in a neverending sea of time.

Who controls time? Is Father Time real? If He is then He would be God.
Ever feel like someone is watching you but you cant see anyone?
Try this... If your alone close your eyes and focus. Think of outer space 1 million years from now. What is it you feel?
When I do this I travel thru time. Weird huh?

At least 5 maybe 6 years.

A warrior is tuned to survive, and he survives in the best of all possible fashions." ― Carlos Castaneda

How long is eternity?
That's how long it will seem until Bush is out of office.

Eternity isn't some later time eternity isn't a long time eternity has nothing to do with time eternity is that dimension of here and now which thinking and time cuts out This is it (this is it) If you don't get it here, you won't get it anywhere and the experience of eternity right here and now is the function of life

The concept of eternity transcends the concept of time. Eternity is infitite; it has no beginning and no end, and as Veritas said, it is happening RIGHT NOW.

That's a fallacious question. You're attempting to frame eternity, a concept that implies infinitude, with time, a concept that is finite. Though I guess you could say that eternity is 'infinite time'. Time, though, attempts to measure experience; eternity is not a measurement at all.

Yes.
Quote:

No.
Infinity is an unending number of somethings. Eternity is a transcendence of those somethings. Infinity would be the forever-long time-line. Eternity would be the space the time-line is situated in, to try and make a metaphor.
More often than not, people consider eternity and infinity to be synonyms, but they aren't.

The space time path that you're referring to has no beginning and no end; does that not make it infinite?
