You should really hear yourself.

Temporality and causality are inseparable. Temporality and action of any kind are inseparable. If any event occurs, time has passed. If you're claiming that these "supernatural" beings are making decisions and starting things, then there is no possible way in which time could not have passed, even in their realm. If you claim that these beings can act, then they must be temporal.

Either come up with a complete explanation for how a being can act without time passing or shut the fuck up, because the burden of proof is on you. I'm not just going to accept the rationalization that "oh gee, well, they're above temporality and logic."
