    The way your looking at it, turning your clock back would alter it. Time is more than numbers, its the measure of a day, it depends on the position of the sun, as it was many years ago :rofl:

    time and numbers are in completely different dimensions

    plus, we made up numbers, yet time is everywhere, no matter what

    All your other statements were right, but how is Time a property of the Universe if it was created on the basis of how the Earth revolves around the Sun? I don't think it's possible to make a "Time" system for the Universe; eh?

    no what you're describing would be the measurement of time. The emasurement of anything is man made.

    Time itself is a property of the universe.

    And yet you say the time was before Big Bang. Big Bang is where everything starts including time.

    Incorrect. Time is not a manmade thing. A person would still age without knowing what an hour is or what a year is. The measurements of time is manmade.

    well saying the big bang IS when time began is also incroect gien that the ig bang theory is nothign more than a theory.


    I have a theory that a lot of people take concepts of others put them through mass media and attempt to get universal acceptance through such said actions.

    because remember if millions of uneducated, non-intellectual proletarians believe it(without even understanding its concepts in entirety) it has to be the proper theory.

    To answer your first paragraph, i will quote national lampoon's animal house:

    "So, youre saying the universe could be just one single atom on a greater beings fingernail? that means any single atmo on my fingernail could be a whole other universe?"

    Moral-Bite your fingernails and you'll go to hell

    your wrong on the last part man time doesn't depend on the position of the sun, we measure our time with the position of the sun yes. but time already was before our sun and all.

    When it was first measured, or when clocks were first used it was in relation to the position of the sun.

    Topic change: I watched this documentary Space or Hyperspace with Sam Neill Part 3 last half hour. It really was amazing. People predicting how we're going to survive after 7 billions years later after the death of our Sun. They were talking about colonizing Mars and then later Europa before engineering ourself to suit outerspace environment. At the very last, Neill began to narrate about traveling outerspace with wormholes.

    Really incredble. Anyone watches Discovery?

    It might have been nice to link to the big bang thread (Theoretical Astrophysics) but it's been closed without explanation. <_<
