A vague poll is by definition not specific just as a false statement is by definition not true. Also, it is untrue to say "it is mathematically impossible to control time" in the same way as saying it is mathematically impossible to control velocity or mass. Plenty of time controlling can be imagined under accepted mathematical frame describing time.

The equations involving time solves in such a way that relative rate of passage of time can be changed by changing other quantities over which we have definite control, like relative velocity. The validity of these equation has been experiementally verified. So not only does math say tIme can be controlled, we've actually proven the concept, in a relatively minor scale.
Equations are a different branch in mathematics.

I think you should assume that i do. Your logic had better not contradict results drawn from any branch of math.

Not all atheists have really rational brains. How do I know all of you have really rational brains?
"Your logic had better not contradict results drawn from any branch of math." I think I'm correct.

Time existed long before we called it "time".
Your point(s) is?

"Computers can control time. they're doing it right now!*"
Couldn't time itself just be an illusion?

Could this be considered time control?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitation...e_dilation Quote:This has been demonstrated by noting that atomic clocks at differing altitudes (and thus different gravitational potential) will eventually show different times. The effects detected in such experiments are extremely small, with differences being measured in nanoseconds. I think this can be considered time control. Also, the closer you travel to the speed of light will have a bearing on your relative time? (Please correct me if I am wrong). As for voting, isn't there a mathematical formula that explains this process? Im sure there would be. |
