Hi onedoug!

Try this link: Paul Wesson's "Time as an Illusion" in PDF. I do believe this is the piece Alamo-Girl was directing you to. It's a dandy!!!

P.S: MHGinTN's speculations on time are fascinating to me. I think he's onto something important here. Certainly I agree with him that our notions of time are rather primitive, being derived from our experiences of direct sense perception. Hint: Not everything in the universe is accessible to direct sense perception, a//k/a direct observation.

SO very true, dearest sister in Christ!

Another example, we cannot physically sense how fast we are moving through space/time which is over 550,000 mph when we include the rotation of the earth on its axis, its orbital length around the sun and the solar system's around the galaxy. To that we'd have to add the expansion of space/time itself which is accelerating, btw.
