    Reminds me of a joke that you’ve probably heard before…

    God was once approached by a scientist who said, “Listen God, we’ve decided we don’t need you anymore. These days we can clone people, transplant organs and do all sorts of things that used to be considered miraculous.”​

    God replied, “Don’t need me huh? How about we put your theory to the test. Why don’t we have a competition to see who can make a human being, say, a male human being.”​

    The scientist agrees, so God declares they should do it like he did in the good old days when he created Adam.​

    “Fine” says the scientist as he bends down to scoop up a handful of dirt.”​

    “Whoa!” says God, shaking his head in disapproval. “Not so fast. You get your own dirt.”

    Yes, I bow to your expertise based on Star Trek.

    No need to bow. Just admitting I’m right is enough.

    peace to you

    That might be the first time, but alas it is not. Time stops at the speed of light according to Einstein. Warp speed is a fiction according to Einstein. The SiFi creators usually ignore the "Time Paradox" to make their fiction seem plausible when it is laughable.

    Well, I suspect I’ll hear a great trumpet, the sky will rip apart and Jesus will appear.

    That’s when time is up.

    I wonder? Will we notice the passing of time in heaven? Hummmm. The saints under the throne of God say, “how long,.,,,,” Maybe before the 2nd coming, but after, probably not.

    peace to you
