Yeah, I misused the word "universe" in my post. Of course if it is by
definition everything, then there is no "before", "after", "inside" or
"outside". It doesn't matter, though; I'm not a physicist or even a
particularly intelligent individual, so it's no surprise that I don't really
"get" this stuff. My point was that it really doesn't matter if I understand
this stuff or not. I don't always need an answer; I don't need "God" to step
in where my understanding of facts falters. I can simply accept not (yet)
knowing.
