A) if you’re such a scientist how can you not figure out that time exists? its not fucking hard.
B) what does me posting in the BOI have to do with anything?
C) what does professor x have anything to do with this?
if anything you just look like you’re trying to change the subject.
each of those things were introduced in my previous post, since you were being insulting towards me, i thought i’d let you have a a piece of my mind, and what i think of you, and how i see you. When ever i look at your posts, i think of some nasty highschool prick. There you go buddy, theres an explanation for what might have appeared to be off topic, but it wasn’t. This whole arguement isn’t about time any more, its a mud slinging match. Don’t pretend its not, don’t try to wind me up. That doesnt work. you dont read my posts properly and your condesending as fuck. Grow up, you dick.
i’ll stop comparing time to other man made concepts when you stop thinking that something has to have mass in order to exist. things can exist an abstract sense, such as emotions and ideas.
i have said before and i will say it again, i dont know if its right or wrong to say time exists or not. I said that in the START, when i edited my first comment. From what i learned/remember, for something to exist it must have mass and energy. then i took your point of view into consideration about concepts existing and now im not so sure, simply because im not well read in the area. But your logic doesn’t satisfy me, i don’t look at what you’ve written as the absolute. Thats why i think we should just leave it, because we look like a pair of pricks talking as if we are know it alls.
like i said earlier, the letter W exists, it isn’t a ‘real’ thing according to you as it doesn’t contain energy but guess what, it’s still real.
i guess they didn’t go over this in your applied sciences course, but time is a measurement, which i explained in my very first post. you use time to measure the transitioning of events just like you use inches or centimeters to measure length or you use gallons, quarts, or litres to measure liquid.
do inches ‘really’ exist? they do in the sense of measurement
do they exist in the sense that you can see an “inch” walking down the street? obviously not.
time = speed
speed = time
go back to bed.
if you hypothetically spun around the earth 10x faster than the sun you would be 10 years younger than the rest of the earth. does that not take into account the concept of time?
idk maybe you’re trying to say that because time is realtive it doesn’t exist, but even still in those realtive cases there is still a measure of time.
that was interesting. you know what else is interesting? I dont know if measurements exist either.
