To your question of whether time exists.. you answered it yourself Originally posted by AndrewPKYap: hahaha I worry because, like length and breadth and time...

toyota-corolla SG

remind me of, if one day scientist made huge a mistake that,

boy is should be actually call girl, and girl should actually call boy.

what till this world come to. Laughing

AndrewPKYap SG

I have no idea what you are trying to say... Laughing

That there are "inherent truths" in this world?

Darkness_hacker99 SG

Then the real boy will give the real girl this look Twisted Evil

hmM~ I finally know why already.. Mr. Green

You are from Outerspace and want to invade Earth right? Mad Laughing

MohamedF SG

What the hell are you guys talking about...? Laughing

Length, breath, hight, area, volume and time all exists weather human exists or not because the universe exist. Its like saying a falling tree doesn't make a sounds because no one heard it...

Even if humans doesn't exists, matter still exist... light still exists... radio waves still exists...

Matter, light and radio waves are constantly in motion and if they move from one point to another, that would already be a distance travel. Even if human didn't exist to invent the calculation for length, the fact is still that these matters had traveled that distance. And length in what ever interpretation exist. The same can be said with hight and breath because this is a 3 dimensional world.

And time exist because nothing moves at an instance moment. Time is simply a calculation between a one moment and the next moment in which something has changed. Even though how minuscule it is. Matter, Light and radio waves travel though distances is different segments of moments. This segments of moments comes after each other and not in the same segments this show the existence of time, no matter how it is interpreted.

The only way that length, breath, height, area, volume and time to not exist if nothing exist.

why do u like to come up with these philosophical qns?
nothing better to do?

anw, length, height, area, volume, time etc. exist
wat we dun see does not mean it doesnt exist.

MohamedF SG

Oh come on... I write long long no one want to comment ar... Mad

club18 SG

i comment. Rolling Eyes

Darkness_hacker99 SG

yar. Agree with you.

AndrewPKYap SG

Nobody said "matter" does not exists. Nobody said Light does not exists. Nobody said "things" do not change.

Man invented concepts like Time because they observe that things change...

"Things" exists but Time? hahaha it is man's invention... it does not exists the way "things" exists. It exists only in people's heads.

AndrewPKYap SG

It is not just we "don't see". Molecules exist even though we don't see them.

Xephone_xenon SG

I know what you are trying to say.
But its not applicable to life.
So all in all, its useless. Neutral

AndrewPKYap SG

Useless? Like whether the sun moves around the earth or the earth moves around the sun is "useless" knowledge? Like whether the earth is flat or round is "useless"? Laughing Believe me, it is very useful even if you do not understand why or know why it is "useful".

MohamedF SG

How can Time be man's invention when we can't even control it. Human invented the calculation and measurement for time but not time itself. Eons, Centuries, Decades, Years, Months, Days, Hours, Minutes and seconds are measurement of time.

Time itself is a difference between an occurrence of a moment to another moment succeeding the previous moment. You cannot deny that there is a distance in moment between the extinction of the dinosaurs and evolution of human. That distance there is time.

The only way that time don't exist is if all matter in existence is frozen to absolute zero. Thus there are no differentiation between moments and time is frozen or doesn't even exist. Another way would be if there is nothing in existence at all.

Darkness_hacker99 SG

Oi! One more thing from you and I'll sent you back to past. Laughing

AndrewPKYap SG

Man cannot control time in the same way that man cannot control ghosts... they don't exists.

Man did not invent the calculation of time... man invented time (Eons, Centuries, Decades, Years, Months, Days, Hours, Minutes and seconds) to calculate... change.

When you say: "That distance there is time."

You have simply restated what the concept of time is... you have not said anything to show that time exists.

It is like saying that zero exists by saying:

When you remove everything, you have zero and therefore, zero exists.

Or when you say: that animal that has a horn in its head and looks like a horse... that animal is a unicorn and that proves that unicorns exist.

This part here:
"The only way that time don't exist is if all matter in existence is frozen to absolute zero. Thus there are no differentiation between moments and time is frozen or doesn't even exist. Another way would be if there is nothing in existence at all."

all you are saying is that "change stops" and there is no need for the concept of time... because you there is no need to measure change when nothing changes.

In no way does it prove the existence of time. The usefulness or uselessness of a concept does not presupposes the existence or otherwise of something.

Like "zero" again.... if everything is frozen at absolute zero and noting is ever destroyed or taken away... only then will zero cease to exist... there fore zero exists.

APKY ar APKY, you kena brain washed by who..

Darkness_hacker99 SG

Just answer me, what is the time now showing at the bottom right corner of your computer/laptop?

fairlady_xoxo SG

Ya i totally agree...

AndrewPKYap SG

It is the journey and never the destination... especially in this case... the debate is not to find the truth... that is not important... the debate is for the crystallization of your thoughts... that is most important.
