sharkyvilla Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 With the big bang/God being the creator stuff, I've often wondered is it possible that 'time' doesnt actually exist, it's just our feeble human minds need a way of counting to make sense of things, and we need to believe that everything needs a beginning and end. I'm probably not making much sense myself. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm probably not making much sense myself. I like this one: "It starts now, it didn't begin in the past, there was no past. See, if the universe began in the past when that happened it was now; see, but it's still now — and the universe is still beginning now, and it's trailing off like the wake of a ship from now, and that wake fades out so does the past. You can look back there to explain things, but the explanation disappears. You'll never find it there. Things are not explained by the past, they are explained by what happens Now. That Creates the past, and it begins here." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time isn't related to human minds, feeble or otherwise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted March 25, 2019 Author VT Supporter Share Posted March 25, 2019 Time present and time past Are both perhaps present in time future, And time future contained in time past. If all time is eternally present All time is unredeemable. What might have been is an abstraction Remaining a perpetual possibility Only in a world of speculation. What might have been and what has been Point to one end, which is always present. Footfalls echo in the memory Down the passage which we did not take Towards the door we never opened Into the rose-garden. My words echo Thus, in your mind. But to what purpose Disturbing the dust on a bowl of rose-leaves I do not know. Other echoes Inhabit the garden. Shall we follow?” T. S.

I'll spend an hour or two on youtube tonight when I get home tonight and see if it changes my view. 1 hour ago, Brumerican said: False. It's elecromagnetism.

Goes to show that there's something bigger at play than we are equipped to conceive. What is responsible for the intangible? My point was more that we are not separate from the universe, that we are a part of it. As is everything. I like @mjmooney 's post on choice of causality.
