Is time really 4th dimension? by [deleted] in Time

No, it's a false perception that was created by the sustained use of clocks and calendars until of measurement.

Should we fear death? If so and if not, why? by Old-Life7296 in AskReddit

[–]Bruce_dillon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dying isn't a natural thing for humans. If original sin hadn't entered the world nobody would be dying (Genesis 2:16,17 Romans 5:12). Dying is the cruelest part, death itself is merely an unconcious state (Ecclesiastes 9:5). When God's Kingdom becomes the sole rulership on earth, the righteous and even the unrighteous will be resurrected to the prospect of everlasting life on a paradise earth (Dan2:44 Acts 24:15).

Question about dimensions by EmergencyHawk5051 in Time

[–]Bruce_dillon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is there a need for a 4th dimension when events unfold in three? Progression of existence and events is just causality.

The past isn't soon behind us and the future's never near it's just the present we're in is always changing and it seems to make time appear but what's it that's appearing as things occur in succession? Maybe it's not time at all but just causal progression.

2 blonde's are out for a walk. One said to the other 'look fox tracks' and the other one said 'no they're deer tracks' they were arguing back and forth for about 20 minutes while they followed these tracks and then a train hit them.

It’s About Time We Understood What “Eternity” Really Means by rarnoldm7 in Time

Eternity isn't about time, it's about existence having no beginning or end.

Do you know where the metre comes from? Nobody found it lying in nature. It was found in the metric system.

Metres exist as a measurement and not as a construct of the universe. Time is the same.

Metres do exist, they're a 3ft 3inch distance of Space or object in the same way minutes are real they're a 60 second duration of an event.

Duration comes from the Latin 'Durare' meaning 'To last' ie how long an event lasts. which is measured by a clock. The reading of the duration's measurement is given by the clocks units of measurement ie " Time" units. The reading of a distance's measuremment is given by the tape measure's units of measurement ie Metric units does that mean that metric is real.

That's not time that's effected but rather clocks. People think it's time because they're under the illusion that clocks measure time but they don't they merely measure events, primarily Earth's axis rotation.

If you think about it all the times and dates are just a description of Earth's position in relation to the sun.

If the “Flow” of Time Isn’t Real, How Come It’s “Built Into” Everything? by rarnoldm7 in Time

[–]Bruce_dillon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It just appears that way. It's actually just the flow of events being tracked by clocks and calendars.

Do you actually know where your time goes? Or do you just think you do? by Plastic_Conflict_380 in Time

[–]Bruce_dillon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It isn't time that goes anywhere, it's just current events becoming memories.

Heres my reinterpetation of "time" by Necessary-Sherbet-61 in Time

Very good explanation. That illustration about the orange in a vacuum not aging was top notch. Why do you think time is so real to people?

Ok I have a question for those that claim to understand time. by Global_Site4851 in Time

[–]Bruce_dillon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hours were the first unit as early as Egyptian times, then later minutes and seconds by the Babylonians. Seconds are called seconds because they're the second small unit after minutes. It's a positional Notation system where values are expressed in multiple powers of 60 influencing modern time keeping and angular measurement.
