After arriving at the wrong airport, they book a hotel for the night, but the taxi drops them off in front of an abandoned warehouse. During the flight, Banani found a very interesting book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, in front of the warehouse, Banani and Ravioli continue their discussion about the book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Banani: What do you think about this argument?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ravioli: It seems like a sound reasoning. However, there&#8217;s something I don\u2019t quite understand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Banani: What is it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ravioli: Why does something eternal have to be unchanging?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Banani: The concept of change is tied to time, so a timeless being cannot change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ravioli: That\u2019s true\u2014things change over time. At first, they\u2019re one way, and in the end, they\u2019re another. But without time, how could they change?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Banani: Exactly! Change implies a &#8220;before&#8221; and an &#8220;after.&#8221; But if something exists outside of time, there can be no before or after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ravioli: So, if something is eternal and timeless, it must always remain the same?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Banani: Yes, because without a before and after, it cannot transition from one state to another. It\u2019s like being permanently fixed in an unchanging condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Igor: We\u2019re looking for something eternal, timeless, and unchanging\u2026 Oh, wait!
