Now look, it says very clearly on the list of forums that this is the Temporary Discussion Area, but there are NO discussions about the nature of time. So i'm making one.

Time confuses me for several reasons
1. you can't poke it with a stick.
2. we all seem to be moving along it at the same speed but...
3. when i try to think about how 'fast' we are moving in time, without reference to time to determine speed, my brain stops working and starts thinking about iced buns instead.
4. did i say several reasons? um...
5. how small does time go till you get to an indivisible elementary particle of time, eh? eh?
6. if the answer to the last one is 'infinitely small' then what sense does 'now' make, eh? eh?
7. is the future already there, or does it get made as it happens?

um yeah.

So anyone want to give me some of their time?
(go on Dom, i've forgotten how your theory that time doesn't exist actually went )

and finally, to fit in with the rest of this Forum, i'd like to blame the USA for its abuse of time and general temporal irresponsibility

WOW! This thread is still going! I can't believe it.

My son is turning 1 under a month and he was only 3 months halway through the thread...

What an amazing progression of changing states forcued us to arrive at this situation despite not travelling at all as time does not really exist... (Still)

So are we any further on aggring/ disaggring on what time actually is?

I bleive that time doesnt exist. It is simply a metaphysical idea, created by man inorder to arrange and organsie life better.

Cos if there wasnt any time, pople would never be able to meet. The conversation would go something like:

"So do you want to meet up tomorrow?"
"Yeh, ok, what time?"
"I reckon 'o' clock is best for me."
"ahhh..I cant make it until ."
"Ok thats fine with me. I will see you at then"
"Bye!"


See the problem?
