what is god actually

[theVOID]

Void,

I just read what you wrote and see that you are almost understanding my perception of time. Instead of seeing time as a tree, imagine that it matches the continuous nature of most other things we can measure, then you will understand why I speak of time as three dimensions with any universe being a point in any time slice with each time slice being a plane encompassing all possible permutations of "choice" which includes all universal randomness i.e. is it raining or is it not at this time slice in this localized area. To any observer their experience of the universe will be four dimensional with time being the one dimension they have no practical control over.

I used to think of time as linear in the past with branching time tunnels forward to account for choice but that didn't seem balanced enough, nor did it account for all possible choices or possible states of random variable of the program, "reality."

YAY time mindfucks,

I see what you are saying, but it still doesn't make 3-dimensional time any less of a nonsensical idea. Time is a single dimension contained within a universe and as such you can't 'slice time' to see all variable streams across parallel universes, you can however look from the higher dimension and see the parallel universes at a given point in time along a fixed axis. The dimension higher than time would convey the x,y,z & t axis of the universes, allowing you to see all events at all points of space and time across universes, each event having it's own space-time coordinate, each universe being a self contained bubble.

I think this is what you were trying to say, but anyway, point is this is not a dimension of time, it is an almost 'spacial' dimension containing 4-dimensional universes.

If this isn't what you were talking about then i have one question, what measurements are contained in your 3 dimensions?

I never thought it was possible to travel back in time, thats what I has expaining. Yes, gravitation (extreme), and extreme speeds would change time slightly. I remember reading about the people in the shuttle, the article said they had went about a large fraction of a second into the future. I thought that was cool though.

You could use a wormhole to connect xyzt(1) with xyzt(2) where 1 & 2 represent different points in spacetime.
