Sunday School 5 months agoIf fossils from age of dinos appear near the surface of earth and recent fossils below and without intervention or natural explanations then i will consider the notion time aint nothing. There is order precisely because there is time. The endless concatenation of events, of cause and effect, are consistent with linear notion of time that we…[Read more]

Some more thoughts……The human concept of Time is difficult to shake off. It feels intuitive but this is only because we feel an innate sense of Time because we have evolved a hard-wired temporal sensitivity. Marking the seasons and changes in the weather helped us survive. We even have a circadian rhythm to a natural light-dark cycle (as do all…[Read more]

Almost. In the block universe, things absolutely do happen. Stars explode or conversations happen. But these only happen locally (within regions of spacetime). What does not happen is a global update of reality. Another way of putting it (I am also explaining it to myself as I write this) is that nothing happens to the Universe as a whole but…[Read more]

Sunday School 5 months, 1 week agoEnco,
It is all recorded in the book of life.
Imagine day after day this white apparation of an English woman harassing a troop of chimps in Tanzania. Yeah they were annoyed but like clockwork she approached and gradually reduced distance between observer and observed. At long last she was tolerated until they were on level of acquantainces in…[Read more]

Time “marches on,” “flies,” “waits for no one” are not ontology. They are just descriptors of how humans feel but not how the Universe works.
Here are my thoughts on “Time and Momentum”. It is not Time…but Momentum that counts. Without the latter, i.e. relational events, the former is not required. Time would not have been conceived of w…[Read more]

“Now” is already gone the moment you say it. The instant you think now, neural processing time in your brain has already elapsed so the concept of “now” is reconstructed after the fact. “Now” immediately becomes a memory, not an event. The Andromeda Paradox destroys the idea of a universal cosmic present. Even two people standing a meter apart do…[Read more]

That is ok Enco. I am a very unstable half-wit.
The article on consciousness had me shaking my bald assed head. Same special creation ethos in science encountered by Jane Allgood. Yeah but those monkeys are only reacting to stimuli. Descarte’s automata. It is totally automatic whenever you are around. Pathetic.

Sunday School 5 months, 1 week agoTime…..
Tree.
Two hundred years of standing.Three-year-old
staring up,
motionless for a minute.Neither knows
how long that minute is.Only I do —
because I remember
when minutes mattered differently.And yet that moment belongs
only to me. -

Also there are reports of chemical weapons and protestors dying a few days after exposure.
Reports of the regime intending a permanent blacklout. What is true i can’t say.

Sunday School 5 months, 1 week agoi may have penned the following.
“The impact of the fall of the Iranian regime will be far bigger than most people realise. It will be a genuine “cut the head off the snake” moment.
Because once the Ayatollahs fall, the entire political ecosystem they’ve been propping up starts to collapse with them. It will instantly strip away, and I cannot…[Read more] -

I agree almost entirely with this idea. I am a big fan of Carlo Rovelli and “Relational States”. There is no “Now”. All events exist “tenselessly”, i.e. without the concept of past, present or future. “Earlier than” and “later than” are structural facts, not things waiting to happen. We don’t experience the “whole loaf”. We are just a local pr…[Read more]
