Without reading all the posts (not enough time), I have a theory:
If you stopped time, none of your bodily functions would be haooening. You would not consciously have any awereness, or any way of detecting that it had stopped. In essence, time could be stopping all the (tries to think of a better word than 'time') 'time'

Maybe it' s better to speak of pausing/freezing motion/action than calling it time.

where has it been said that time travel to the past is possible?
seems a little hokey to me.

I must have missed that part. I know it has been scientifically shown that time moves slower to our own time clock on Earth. I think they say planets farther away from the source it revolves around (like the sun) has a longer period. they say that phenomenons like the event horizon on black holes actually would cause time to appear differently too.

thats not because time stops or nethin, its cause ur brain makes monotnous things travel faster, but the first time u look at the clock{not expecting it to go ticking on and on monotonously for an eternity, ur reflexes and the amount of resources ur brain is usin for processin that info is greater and hence it passes slowly, givin u more time to study n understand it, but once it becomes monotonous, lesser resourcesw are used.

you know...
three consecutive posts are not required.
you could've just as easily have placed all three of those thoughts into one post and saved a bit of page.

i could, but then again, my knowledge is superior to that of mortals so that gives me some leverages and advantages in public, one beeing the usage of as much space as i want unlike other mortals who are frowned upon if they do such a thing, lol. actually i wrote whatever came to my mind one after the other

I missed that part of it.........with time being relative and all, how could we even theorize about time existing/not existing in part of the universe? Time is relative to us, where we are at the moment we are observing it (which means there is no past/future...if by some sci-fi miracle we traveled to 1923 it would be present, not past as we would be viewing it in 1923)............no matter what coordinate of space we were in, time would exist. Here's why:

1. The human body has several internal sources of forward motion (circulatory system, respiratory system, etc.). If we were to observe time (forward motion) not existing, our heart would stop and our lungs would cease to work.

2. We would not know if forward motion (time) didn't exist because we would not exist......as our human bodies depend on forward motion for survival. We would be dead and therefor obviously unable to observe this feat.

it would not be possible to distinguish whether the 'speed of time' so to speak, has been altered. if time sped up, so would we, so it would just seem normal. again, if time was frozen, then we would be also. it could be possible but no one knows for sure

(New To Forum, But Perfect Place For Expression) I have a theory that encompasses all possibilities into one neat little package, its so complex to explain the simplicity of it. Me and my friend literally spent from 10 pm last night to 11 am this morning talking elaborating on the perfect ways everything falls into one. I'm actually serious when i say i think i know how it allllll works, because every possibility. i read the first page of this forum so far and everyone says the same things i've come up with, but not in the way that i makes sense to everything else every one is saying. if your open to any concept, tell me you'd listen and not argue and just listen to my observation. [email protected]. if you wanna email me, i'll share my thoughts on what me and my best friend compiled

What is so hard about understand that time is a man made construct to give organization to things?

A minute is a measurement, just like an inch, but they are abstractions made up so that we may have ways to understand them.

So you think that length doesn't exist because we had to invent the inch? Would save me a lot of gas if that were true.

No. That can never be a direct metaphor because you can put down a ruler and actually measure that. There is nothing concrete about time.

I meant the inch and minute thing as a universal abstraction that people use to explain and "how long" it takes to do something or "how long" this object is.

Time, understood as people are trying to use it, seems illogical. Each instance I press a key is a moment in the "past." What I am about to type is in the "future." So the only way to have a "present" is to literally freeze time which is where it gets messy.
