Clocks go back sunday october 27th (Europe)

[Bill Walker]

time is an abstract concept invented by mankind.
it doesn't actually exist.

Things decay because of time..

Among physicists, there is no real doubt that time does really, truly exist. It's a measurable, observable phenomenon. Physicists are just divided a bit on what causes this existence, and what it means to say that it exists. Indeed, this question borders the realm of metaphysics and ontology (the philosophy of existence) as much as it does on the strictly empirical questions about time that physics is well-equipped to address.

I remember I used to hate this time of year in England I used to get depressed in October when the clocks went back and I started thinking about the dreary months ahead, cold and dark.
It's probably the main reason I ended up living in a sunny warm climate.
I remember thinking we're only here for 70 or 80 years if we're lucky so why live in the cold.

Although I always also believed that the UK was very badly run on a local and national level.
That was probably another reason.

England will always be home though, even if I never go there again.

Like a funny scouser.

Not so sure about that.

"This is our year, la"

Great comedy line is that tbf.

Winter is what makes the spring so special, I wouldnt want it any other way.
(which is lucky because I couldnt afford to move abroad anyway)

just putting a source on your text ;)

Does Time Really Exist? A Physicist's Perspective

Some people wonder if time really exists. Here are arguments for and against the existence of time, from a physicist's perspective.

mister bill.
i love you,
but i have several things to say in response to your post,
at the end of which feel free to call me a tosser,
and we will still remain friends.

firstly,
your post very much sounds like a cut+paste from a google search, in order to make you seem more knowledgeable than you actually are.
as such...

secondly,
plagiarism is a cheeky thing that often backfires.

thirdly,
this may come as a surprise,
but not everything you read on the internet is true.

fourthly,
i was trained as a theoretical physicist,
which in theory (geddit) makes me a physicist that disagrees.
so your statement that "among physicists there is no real doubt that time does truly exist" is incorrect.

fifthly,
to many practicing physicists time is not fundamentally real.
we may feel like we experience it as real, there is no proof it is.
(if you don't believe me use your google search and you will see.)

sixthly,
this "arrow of time" theory oft used is a paradox,
and ultimately an illusion.
granted, a very powerful one.

seventhly,
einstein proved that, on its own, time isn't absolute.
time doesn't exist unless it is entwined with space.
i am certainly not saying space time doesn't exist,
but time on its own is a highly improbable solution.
it is a way for us to try to understand what is going on.
but it has flaws that cannot be overcome.

I hope you’re not always going to pull up posters for pasting stuff of Wiki. If you are don’t spend too much time in the politics forum

i did once wander into the politics forum...
i got all worked up on several threads,
called loads of people cunts,
then tried to apologise and left with tail between legs..
never again.
