One of my favorite Twilight Zone episodes ever.

Time won’t let me
Time won’t let me
Time won’t let me wait too long

I’ve got a suitcase of memories that I almost left behind
Time after time
Time, time, time
But you say to go slow but I fall behind
Time after time after time

Last one:

It was late in December, the sky turned to snow
All round the day was going down slow
Night like a river beginning to flow
I felt the beat of my mind go
Drifting into time passages
Years go falling in the fading light
Time passages
Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight

Yep.

Except he could have likely have found any number of places that sold high resolution reading glasses and borrowed a pair or two.

There is only now. Not hard to figure out.

Time as proscribed by clocks and calendars is a human construct as seen in the different cultural calendars in use around the world, Chinese, Jewish, Julian, Gregorian and my favorite the ever-changing Day Light Savings time. I can attest to the fact that the fish in east Tennessee don’t understand DLS. They understand sundown and insect hatches regardless of what your watch says. What that has to do with quantum physics I don’t know. But life was better when we all lived much as the fish in those mountain streams, ordering out lives by nature time, not mans.

In and of itself, I’ve long held, time is not a “thing”. Instead, time is a by-product of matter in motion.

I don’t have time to explain it, though.

Moving something with infinite mass...How? If something can’t move then does it have need to perceive time? When people speak of being no time I think people are looking to be able to replay events and so on. Beyond that is it relevant? What are they trying to accomplish with the no time theory? If you know or have a link that would be interesting to know.

Yep - this will eliminate the need for a dynamics course in the engineering curriculum.

“Now it seems like they’re all obsessed with science fiction stuff, like parallel universes and string theory.”

Well, that’s progress. Remember, before Newton and Galileo and Copernicus and the intrepid mariner explorers the world was...different.

As I mentioned earlier, I taught physics at the high school level. I also taught an intro college course on the subject. Some of my colleagues had a nickname for me, “the experimenter”. That was because I was always asking about the experimental evidence.

That nickname was not meant as a compliment! The implication was that I was not “theoretical” enough. I found that odd, and also a bit amusing. All of science is built on experimental evidence.

If there’s no hard evidence, it’s not science. A good example of that is with climate change. The hard evidence is just not there. So it ain’t science.

Actually don’t you mean acceleration rather than gravity? Whether the acceleration you experience is due to being in a gravity well or a big honkin’ rocket strapped to you back, the result of time dilation is the same.

Revelation 1:8: “I am the Alpha and the Omega” God is in the past, the present and the future.

Yes, God’s time is outside of our ability to understand. Like Darwin, could physics realize the closer they get to answers, the closer they are to God?
