Why Do People About Time Travel When Time Itself Does Not Exist?

[Richard Glidewell]

Only people that time don't exist for is Uber rich people........

So either OP slumming or they HIGH HIGH HIGH

 

[Batsute]

Tried soooo hard not to reply but I can't resist threads like this....

Yes man time exists. Please explain why you think there's no such thing as time

Simple my brother, if black don’t crack then how could time exist.

 

[Kyle C. Barker]

First, explain for us why Time is not real. You do not help people understand what you mean, by just running in and making a scientific declaration without actually supporting.

And he brought scientists into it too lol

Might as well say kinematics isn't real

How do you define a light year

Or the speed of light

Or the speed of sound

Etc...

 

[Maruchan]

You’re not proving time exists with that argument, you just renaming change and pretending that makes time a physical thing.
Change causes the motion, time is jsut how we describe that motion

If you took away time, people would still age, flowers would still bloom, because these processes run on physics not time.

Lol no breh you're renaming time.

Time IS the change. Time IS the motion. Time IS distance. Time quantifies these processes.

Time is happening whether u want to describe it or not. Once a single point in the universe moves grows changes whatever you call it....the clock starts whether you point it out or not.

Aaa Aha...
You say time IS the motion, and time IS distance.

See you treating time like it’s some force or substance that makes things move or change. But motion and change happen because of energy, forces, and physical interactions, not because time is pushing anything forward. In fact time is not even needed in these situations.

Things don’t change because time exists.
Things change because physics makes them change. I'm sure you agree with this now hearing it out loud.

A star burns and can blow up because of crazy nuclear reactions, a kid grows because cells divide, a car moves because engines create force.
None of these things requires time, the processes would happen in a timeless universe too.

Think of this, you saying basically that once something moves, time starts.
But isn't that backwards thinking?
The movement IS the thing, time is just the word we using AFTERWARDS to talk about how the movement unfolded.

U mistaking the existence of change for the existence of time

You are misinterpreting what time is, by thinking scientists consider it a force or a substance that changes. Time is an integral part of the fabric of the universe, linked with Space. No physicist defines time as you have been doing to make your argument that Time does not exist. Also, because it is called SpaceTime, meaning 3 cardinal and 1 temporal dimensions, the idea of time travel is a discussion on how to move to a point that is X,Y,Z,T in Spacetime when discussed in a scientific format.

Here, this should help you understand what pysicists are actually talking about when discussing Time.

Albert Einstein’s ideas about space-time aren’t exactly intuitive, and they aren’t exactly Einstein’s, either.

How to Think About Relativity​

Now, if you would have started talking about the Block Universe theory, then you would have been on the right path, but wrong conclusion on time based on that theory. In a Block Universe, the past/present/future are all happening at the sametime.

If you find the idea of time travel mind-bending, get a load of the 'block universe'

The block universe theory says the past, present and future all exist — and are equally real — in a four-dimensional block where the passing of time is an illusion.

time is nothing, think about it
What is time? It's nothing...

The human brain is a crazy thing, time is nothing, it was created by humans, it's just your brain that stitches together memories to form a sense of duration.
If you remove memory, time disappears.

What if we just call it duration repositioning? Would that make you feel better?

Time is a measurement tool, just as math is. Both were created by humans. Created things do exist. So WTF are you talking about.

Knowledge is honesty and they're not ready for the truth, King. Don't take it personally.

See you tomorrow about this thread

 

[MaxPain]

Most people don’t know that though OP, time is made up. Plus time IS real in this third dimension…we are all slowly aging….which most of us in this thread are in or lower. Lool at the comments your gettinf OP, that should tell you everything.

Exactly where my brain went trying to read the thread title

 

[Diunx]

Even from a non human name point of view, shyt changing, deteriorating etc is prove that time exists, what I don't believe exists is the ability to go back in time which would be pretty much undoing shyt.

Time feels like the biggest magician in the room because it moves in one direction and never lets you catch it, but when you look deeper, it’s not as solid as it seems. In physics, especially when you study relativity, time starts behaving like a flexible concept instead of a strict ruler. It stretches, slows down, and bends depending on speed and gravity. Two people can experience it differently even if they’re standing in the same universe. That alone shows that time is not the absolute force we imagine





On a human level, time becomes even more illusory. Your memories are fragments, your future is a projection, and your present moment is already slipping away as soon as you notice it. What we call “time” is often just the mind organizing experience so life feels linear instead of chaotic. Without consciousness, time has no emotional weight, no meaning, no story. That’s why people say time flies when you’re happy and drags when you’re miserable. It’s not just perception. It’s your mind stretching the moment like warm dough





So yes, in many ways, time is as real as gravity yet as illusionary as a dream. It exists, but it doesn’t exist in the way you think. What you truly experience is attention, change, and memory. Time is just the container you pour those things into
