What "preposterous proposition" are you talking about?

That the universe came into being last Thursday. Don't you know it was the Thursday before last? Otherwise, I see where you're coming from.

Some say that if one were to traverse a straight line away from earth for an infinite time and/or distance one would once again return to the point of origin. If that is true of space it may also be true of time, in which case last Thursday is as much the present moment as 14 billion years from now or 14 billion years in the past.

I must have missed something. How does that answer this:

Another non-sequitur change of subject.

If you have a point here, why don't you quit dancing around and make it. Or troll somewhere else.
