Where is the evidence for a global flood?
E≈mc2 When the world is a monster
Bad to swallow you whole
Kick the clay that holds the teeth in
Throw your trolls out the door

AMR accuses Open Theism of building its theology atop the same Greek philosophies that it condemns.
AMR defends the philosophical ideas of God’s immutability, impassibility, and timelessness against charges of paganism because the people who lay the charges use different philosophical ideas that the pagans also used.
AMR claims that theologians using Greek ideas altered those ideas from what they meant before that.
AMR says there is no disputing that Augustine owed much to Platonic thinking and was converted to Christianity because of it. He thinks people who hold these facts up to scrutiny have not studied enough on the subject.
AMR shows that Aquinas knew a lot about Aristotle.
AMR recognises that lots of theologians have opposed classical theology.
AMR describes Greek ideas of what God might be like, unchanging, compassionless and apathetic.
AMR requires evidence that the influence of this kind of Greek thought is bad.
AMR requires that an alternative theology be based on something other than a human interpretation and philosophy.

So.... time is infinite from our perspective but not from God's?
OK, well... not sure where to go from here.
All I will say is I think it is irrational to believe that time is something that anyone or anything can be "out of". I think the notion of being "outside of time" is one of those sci-fi, gobbledygook things that have been created over the years via the poor theology of Calvinism and Arminianism. I think the concept turns God into more of a magically fairy than a real, rational, living God that is described in the Bible. And most importantly the concept of God being outside of time flies in the face of His word in which He describes how He interacts with His creation within a sequentially reality for us and for Him.

Galatians 5:22-23 (New International Version)
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

"Moral standards" are a lot like lighthouses: they exist to help us stay on course as we sail through life. But we have to steer BY them, but not directly AT them. Lest we end up marooned on the shoals of perpetual self-righteousness.

If a tree falls in a forest, and no one is around to hear it, does that mean that i'm the one who knocked it over?
