It appears obvious to me that you did not read the OP. I'm not completely stupid. I already know this. I get it. I don't need it to be explained to me. My whole point was that in my own mind it makes more sense to see time as an exact location instead of a distance. My point is that when things make sense they hurt my brain and when I try to make sense of them I always end up with something that everyone else says is is too complicated. My question wasn't oh mighty intellectuals at AF please explain to me how time works. I get it honestly. I just wanted to know if I'm crazy. That's all. And if I am, are there other crazy people who are also crazy in the same way that I am?
I did read it, and you apparently do need it explained.
This seems the same as those who aren't comfortable with metric - it isn't what they learned when they were very young.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
