If there is such and thing as time then we are confronted with limitless numbers of absurdities. Just to start with:
Light travels and yet it has no time to travel. (light can travel for billions of years and never lose time, not even a millisecond) It not only travels, without time, but it does this travelling in such a way that it makes everything, with time, stationary so it cannot have time. (Relativity 101) So if light has no time to travel how can we have time.
The only solution is we don't because it, time, is just a thought, word.

The 5000 year old study of thoughts "the Supreme Science" tells us exactly the same story as does physics: there is no time because it is just a word, thought, Reality's fiction, like the universe.
i don't think i'm understanding what you mean about light and time. could you elaborate a little? light (made up of photons) does take time to travel. but i guess that's not what you mean. i thought relativity said time would appear to 'slow down', not stop altogether at light speeds relative to everything else.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
