God, the Eternal Father

God according to mormomism, could never have been the eternal father, for he once was a man, just like his god was once a man and as that god was once a man ad infinitum.

Care to explain that.

When I asked something similar, when I was LDS, I was told that ‘from eternity to eternity’ or ‘one eternal round’ (common LDS phrase) doesn’t REALLY mean eternity, it is just a really long time compared to our 24 hour day so it just SEEMS like eternity.

No, I am not kidding.
