oy,
first of all, i am NOT saying time is god, i am saying that time shares many of the features god supposedly has, it is an interesting coincidence, and perhaps god is based on time, i probably should have named this thread better than i did.
the big bang theory only states that the universe as we know it started with a phase of infinite density and temerature, this phase itself is reffered to as the big bang, at a
finite time in the past (about 13.7± 0.12 billion years ago). this singularity is extrapolated by the point of wich general relativity breaks down; it never says anything about time starting there, that sounds like a semi-relegious interpretation, if anything it suggests time did not start there.
the planck epoch may have been the earliest period of time in our universe, but only because that extremly short period of infinite density and temperature would have broken down general relativity and so for that very short time(10^-43 seconds or one planck time unit) , time was not flowing{for lack of better term} but before, it the universe existed in a [most likely] diferent form, but still eleven dimentional [with diferent dimentions unfolded most likely] therefore time has always existed and always will exist. of course i cant be certain that this is true, but the theorys are not only the best mathematical model we currently have of our space-time continuum, but they very much make sense to me, so i go by them until somebody comes up with a better model.
by "time is all knowing" i mean, time is the benchmark to which we measure all, it is the medium to which all events exist, of course it is not sentient, so it has no knowlege, but without it, 'events' would not be, and we look back through it and pull from it all our knowlege[history], perhaps just a few moments we look back, perhaps several thousand years.
time is not uniformly everywhere no, however at least in our corner of the universe where only 4 of the 11 dimentions are uncurled, time flows{for lack of better term}, we can precieve it faster or slower, depending upon local gravity and/or speed, but it is still there, as for other regions of the universe that posibly dont have time, those cannot for logistacal purposes apply, not only because they are so far away, but if we ever had the tecnological capability, we could not go there because they
probably would not be compatable to support beings from our region (if we could go there, it would be so different we most likely would not survive, or at least we would get stranded there).
the event horizon of a black hole is a boundary
in space-time, not of space-time. it is simply the point of which light cannot escape the gravity of a black hole, and therefore (according to relativity) nothing else can because a sufficent escape velocity is unobtainable without exceding the speed of light, and that is imposible. because of relativity.
an object that approaches the horizon from the observers side will appear to slow down and not pass through the horizon, and its image will become ever more redshifted as time elapses. this is because the light reflected from the object(the objects image) will travel slower because of the massive gravitational forces. the object however, experiences no relativistic effects and passes through the event horizon in a finite amount of proper time.
nobody entirely understands time. nobody entirely (or even close) understands their chosen god image. that quality is mutual, that is all i stated.
as for time being all-powerful, if you are given 2 hours to convince the citizens of your state you should be their next leader, but your opponent is given 1 year, that extra time your opponent has is an extremely powerful tool, and your opponent will probably win because he or she had that power. time is all powerful because the more of it you have, the more you can accomplish, and that makes it very powerful. if one were to invent a drug that extended the life of whoever took it by a conciderable amount of time, they would rapidly become the wealthiest person in the world. that is powerful. time is powerful.
Quote:All you've shown is a deep misunderstanding of time yourself, so maybe a little research before you post garbage next time?
it appears it is you who has shown the deep understanding of time, and needs to do some research.
Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?
