We're talking about two different things

i now ask: how does someone measure something.

i'm not trying to be an ass, but the whole idea of time existing depends on a perception.


we didn't have time travel novels until the thinking about time changed (for a fun think about kind of thing that's not related to the points)

We don't know =P

Let's say that you're r00ted to the ground, in the distance you see a mountain. Since you are immobile you have no way of knowing what is on the other side of the mountain.

If the only way you will acknowledge science is for it to explain every tiny facet of everything - that's an unreasonable expectation. That being said I don't really care if you do or don't, this thread has been fun and been a good exercise in at least attempting to explain what I have learned and feel to be true which I find to be valuable. Shit makes sense to me...

if sciense is so smart what happens after we die

Science doesn't know. There's far more that science doesn't know than it does. This does not discredit what science does explain. I personally don't care what happens after we die.. because I'll be dead.

Actually I misspoke here. Science knows that after you die you decompose. What science can't explain is what happens to your consciousness, or even what consciousness is.

When you die? We celebrate and velious comes out.

Einstein's classic example of relativity is that 2 hours with a pretty girl feels like 2 minutes. And 2 minutes of.. lets say reading this thread feels like 2 hours. Your perception of the time does not effect its actual passage.

r00t if you have a point, make it. No respectable scientist would claim that we the human race know more than we don't.
