 As well as believing that everything must exist in space, More also believed that everything must exist in time. Furthermore, time, like space, is a real absolute thing which cannot possibly not exist. Assuming the world to be not much over 5,000 years old (in accordance with the standard view), More insisted that if God annihilated the world after 1000 years and then had recreated it a thousand years ago, there must have been a gap “of above three thousand yeare” (Nicolson 1992, 487). Just as the existence of space cannot be “dis-imagined”, so the existence of time cannot be dis-imagined. Accordingly, like space, time is conceived of as an attribute of God: God’s existence entails the existence of space, and the existence of time (Thomas 2018, 51). Infinite space and infinite duration are said to be “certain adulterated representations of the divine eternity and immensity” (adulterinas quasdam esse Aeternitatis Immensitatisque Divinae Repraesentationes) (More 1675–79, 172; Thomas 2018, 54).
