I have never heard such statements.
Please provide references where these were said.

I think:
As gravity distorts the fiber of space time, a black hole makes a hole (punctures) the fabric of space time. So at the hole the time is not predictabel. its like a hole in simple graphs. I think time tends to negative infinity to the past to the time of big band, the "singularity". that's just me, not a professional.
