Well, I do not believe time to be anything more than a human construct. IMHO, we are simply aware of possibilities. Once one has perused all the possibilities in heaven (each a thousand times over) then what? It will still boil down to forever is a long long long long loooooooooooooooog eternity.
A human construct?? Mmm, I don't think so. Perhaps as far as how we keep track of it, yes. But time is definitely something that exists. Regardless of whether we have clocks or calenders or count days, time still goes by. Everything around us gets older the longer it's been in existence, because time goes on.
We just can't fathom being "outside" of time, if you will.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
