There once was a link that would convert a web page backwards. www.smeg.com\backwards, or something like that. I was going to do an "already posted" reply and link the post to that page, so it would print sdrawkcab. Alas, that web page appears to be no more.

Ah the infamous "Beer Goggles" also known in the scientific community as "Entropy Optics". In short as the volume of alcohol in your galaxy (blood stream) decreases through the expansion of your bladder and necessitates a dispersion (The Big Wizz). The Entropy ("black energy")that once clouded your ability to discern a hottie from a double bagger is reduced and your sexual drive is now sucked into a "Black Hole" of remorse and shame. Don't worry it happens all over the known "Universities".

Perhaps we only perceive it flowing in one direction only because we're in an accelerated frame of reference with respect to time. An "accelerated frame of reference"? LOL.
We "perceive" time as flowing forward because that is the nature of time, the reality we live in.
God created time, days and seasons.
We perceive time not only in our personal frame of reference but on EVERYTHING outside of of ourselves as well. Everything has a shelf-life, gets old, a period of reckoning and we SEE this. That is the definition of time.

Did you require thought before typing backwards sdrawkcab?
Also, while you're here: are you related to A.Pole?

We "perceive" time as flowing forward because that is the nature of time, the reality we live in Nope. It's because of our nature. Time has no nature. We manufacture the present.
The 'knowledge of good and evil' is also the knowledge of 'before and after'.

Where does the knowledge of 'now or later?' come into play? How about "I'm tired, can we do this in the morning?" or "But it was all ON SALE I said..."?

With a bit of a mind flip
You're into the time slip.
And nothing can ever be the same.
You're spaced out on sensation.
Like you're under sedation.
Let's do the time-warp again.

Nope. It's because of our nature. Time has no nature. We manufacture the present.
Are you trying to make me laugh on purpose or what dude?
If people simply "manufactured the present" we would be in a state of perpetual chaos.
The idea that "Time has no nature" is nonsense.
The sun rises and sets each day. The sequence of days, weeks, seasons and years is one of the most reliable indicators of nature in existence.
The 'knowledge of good and evil' is also the knowledge of 'before and after'.
I suggest you seek serious counseling while you still have time.
