There Really Have To Be A First Time For Everything
This is not a religious question. But there will probably be religious responses. This question is intended to be taken literally. "First" meaning first and "everything* meaning everything. The use of the word "time" is not to be taken literally. I lean towards the theory that "time" is a measurement for everything finite and simply is not a part of infinity.

Yes.

If there wasn't a first time, there would be no other time.
Time, requires a first data input from some outside source.

So, yes.

No, time is only linear in normal space. Outside of those parameters time gets tricky and causal logic gets convoluted.

If something never happens, then it never happens for the first time. So unless everything happens, there won't be a first time for everything. And everything doesn't have to happen so there doesn't have to be a first time for everything.

 Sounds good to me.
But if raises the question if something never happens, then was it something to begin with? Or maybe these somethings which never happen are possibilities which became possible for the first time.

No, my reasoning is this. There will never be a time when a green otter and a pink shark have a tea party in windor palace. And i know that that must be the oddest thing I have said in a long time but you said everything means 'EVERYTHING'

Is this some sort of tricky question? Lets look at it from this angle. No certainly not there are things I won't do for the first time or any other time.
