Time must be a loop, or else it could not exist.

because
Because if time is not a loop, then there must be a beginning of time, and a beginning of time can't exist, because if so, what is before time? Nothing could have caused the beginning of time, because that nothing can happen without time. If it was a loop, time would cause time to begin.

but
This is a false dichotomy, there could be no loop nor beginning of time. In the same way there aren't a beginning of relative numbers, but they don't loop either.

however
Any point in a loop can be taken as a beginning. You can make a loop out of line and a line looked from the top looks like a dot. What I'm saying is that depends on the perspective. Logic is not good here. Also, do trees understand time? Are we born at birth or with the first memory?

but
it is so natural that anything that is created by or in time, can't think about beginning and non-existence of time
