how can you say so?

too many "what if's and perhaps" ...
hahaha too much theoretical books and late-night sci-fi causes theories popping in your head. he's got good points though. coexisting branches of existence and our limited perception of multidimensional realities may have caused us to create and perpetuate time as a concept. urk.

time does exist...if time does not exist...how can you measure the rising and the setting of the sun..time is a basic component of the measuring system used to sequence event..for example, an hourglass...The flow of sand in an hourglass can be used to keep track of elapsed time. It also concretely represents the present as being between the past and the future...time, for me does exist...if it does not exist...then how do we call the call the moments that pass us by? perhaps, we can call it or explain it in some other teminology or whatever explanation there is but the bottomline is, its always called time..whatever explaination there is...hehehe..
peace y'all...

"A series of experienced, but simultaneous nows."
1. The flow of sand in an hourglass can be used to keep track of elapsed time.
Elapsed time? Judging from the common view that is. However, you cannot measure time. Merely a set of passing experiences. Also, it appears more of a measurement of how many unit of grains fell and how many are still left.
2. how can you measure the rising and the setting of the sun?...
What is the need to measure its rise and fall? We are dealing with human experiences and the sun has little to do with what we are consciously having in need.
The human mind/consciousness is not capable of processing/experiencing all the nodes in any probability path simultaneously, so it orders them into a linear series. Most humans think this way because we are all thinking inside the box. Try thinking outside so that you'll have a clearer picture of what is really happening.
Imagine having a 360 degree full angle vision. Or perhaps, imagine that you are one of the light molecules that hit things and pass through one's eye at a certain speed, one after the other. Your speed would not be interpreted as speed by the individual's eye, rather, your speed of hitting will be interpreted as color. That is what you call experience and these are just a few examples of how to think outside the box.
Time is Abstract.
It does not have to exist.
Temperature does not exist.
It is just a measure of heat.
But we say the time and we say the temperature.
They are just two of the most important physics constants.
This key constants is the reason why I dont believe in time travel.
To you travel back in time, it means you have to cool down the whole universe.
Key constants. Ah, yes, key constants and formulas. Cooling down? Could be.Originally Posted by Soul Doctor
