Some things are logically possible and some are not. For example, sometimes people ask "God can make a rock big enough He can't lift it?" That is logically impossible.
And some people also claim that you can have a 'prior' in a different time dimension.

Larni seemed to think it was logically impossible to have a prior in a different time dimension.
It is.

It is not logically impossible as I demonstrated.
Imagination does not demonstrate anything.
I can imagine that god made a rock too big for him to lift - and yet you claim that is logically impossible.
I can imagine many impossible, illogical things, including a spacetime dimension in which you could watch colliding branes creating new universes again and again.

If you postulate the possibility, as PaulK said he is willing to do, then the problem PaulK is trying to solve with this thread goes away.
Positing illogical impossibilities might make the problem go away for you, but not for me.
Your suggestion that being able to imagine something is evidence of it being a logical possibility is patently false.
Imagination should never be used in a logical argument as it is not bound by logic.
