Is Time An Illusion?

time is only something humans know , animals dont keep time as we know it , makes me laugh how religioius nuts think time is sommething humans didnt make up lol
 
lol at time , you do realise theres worlds out there who could have allready been through nucleur war

There is evidence of possible weapons with power similar to today's on THIS planet. In the Rig Veda (first human text) these weapons are described. And there are sheets of glass in the desert that may be remnants of blasts from ancient bombs. I'm not saying this is for sure, but even just here there are stories and evidence of it.
 
On a related note. Had a chemistry professor back in college who asked us a question. "How long is a meter?" Or something like that, I'm baked. People answered and then he asked why a meter was ____ long. Noone answered. And he just said "because we say it's that long"

Obvious answer but it makes you think about all these measurements we make

I wish I could remember it exactly, but if you think about it it applies

...:eyesmoke:

measurement is a complex thing how hard would it be to measure a length of string?

you guys, seriously, just watch this video

the most important thing that anyone can spend their time learning about


unless watching that video is an exercise in identifying frauds, psuedoscience, and utter bullshit

i would have to compleatly dissagre with you on that

The story I half-remember is that when scientists and engineers came together to reform weights and measures, the meter was one-forty-millionth of the Earth's circumference at the equator. They agreed on a value, then realized (substantiated) that value by making an I-beam of solid platinum/iridium (:shock: :shock:) with calibration marks on it.
Improved surveying science has since changed the value for Earth's circumference, but the Original Meter (in its temp-controlled vault in Paris) was the go-to reference for the length of a meter until they changed to a wavelength-of-light standard based, of course, on the Daddy Stick. cn
 
So if time is non-existent how are some people older than others and some people are younger than others? Serious question BTW.
