??? physics is not something to be believed in, it is something to be learned and and attempted to be understood. the distinction between the past, present and future is physical. one can see, feel, smell, hear... remember these changes. the coffee mug sitting beside my key board is empty. i drank the coffee. it was in the mug. the aftertaste is slowly fading from my mouth. i know what happened here, i don't see any illusion as to what or when it happened
( ... )
i like to sum it all up with this little anecdote. in third grade i got a 32 on a test i took that required you to differentiate between your right and left hands. obviously i failed and should have never left kindergarten.. being that right and left are taught so young and i somehow missed that lesson in life... we know right and left only because we have given these directions names-->and thus direction. and so we go in circles. the space existed prior to our naming it, but its only through our naming it that we have tangibly proven its existence. i think... the name kinda says it all. theory of relativity. relativity implies that its relative only in nomenclature and perspective, beyond that it holds no meaning, intrinsic value, or truths to which the universe adheres.
but how did this even start anyhow?... it amuses me quite a lot, your reply i mean.
and then my reply to yours..and so on.
funny though, my dad and i spent hours talking about this two days ago..okay yah so were nerds. but so are you, obviously.
distinction between past, present, and future is only a
stubbornly presistant illusion.
