The Time we know to be time isn't really time.

Looking at it in the long run, does it really exist.

I made up a theory one time to a friend, tell me if its probable.

My theory is that time does not really exist, looks more like humans made it up to keep organized.

I have heard countless theories and proven Laws. The one thing that I don't understand is that if they are all based on Time, which I think humans invented, then isn't their a way to actually brake all these laws.

Imagine you have a pie. Lets say fruit pie, and this pie is cut into many pieces. Let the different pieces express variable dimentions. Let the pieces of fruit express time. Let the Dough represent Space. Lets say each piece is given to a person to eat. Now the pie holds characteristics of all the different kind of fruits, but the pieces of pie are all in different peoples hands. This pie is no longer an entire pie. It is in pieces. Each person holds a dimention and a different variable of time. Lets say each person ate a piece of pie. To one the pie tasted like it had to much apple, to another it tasted like it had to much rasberries, to another like it had to much lemon, ect.... (Im just hoping you don't think I'm Crazy)

The Number of Fruits were never given and neither where the pieces. The only thing we know is that it was once a whole.

THIS MAY SOUND WEIRD

What if the universe is that pie. We already hold one piece of the puzzle. The others are in the hand of others. The reason I mentioned that the Fruit was time is because we have a certain amount of fruit here. Since the fruit is connected to all the pieces, then it is the key to unravelling this mistery.

What I was impling is that we only hold knowledge of one type of fruit.

The reason I don't think time exist is that all the different fruits put together are what time truly is. Once we discover this mystery it will lead us to a portal through different dimentions, Maybe, who knows. It is link to other dimentions, When we unravel what time is then we may discover what the universe really is.

Sorry If this sounded to crazy. I haven't done the mathematical studies on this because if our definition of time is wrong, then how can I prove my theory???

Time does not Exist because It can be broken, So it is not Law, Just theory.

Too bad your theory is wrong. I once thought time "couldn't exist" also but once you actually realize what time is doing, at least from our limited perspective, you do realize its presence is there.

Doesn't mean we actually know what exactly it is, but it is there.

Now if we were to call the Enthalpy of the universe time, does that mean time is changing? For the Enthalpy of the Universe is increasing, and therefore maybe time is changing proportionally with it.

It's easiest to just realize this.

Time is an indivisible incriment.

If you think to yourself, well here's an easy example.

You have 1000 dollars compounded daily at 6% interest, that daily is the indivisible incriment of time. For we all know that if you compounded it hourly, the experimental data would change.

So what time is is the finite incriment that the universe runs on, just like our computers have a clock that they run on, so does this universe.

If there were no "time" then the universe would not function, because the incriments would be infinitely small and therefore the data would equal zero because 1/infinity is...zero.

And obviously we aren't nothingness.

However who can say if time is necissarily the 4th dimension, I suppose it is, but who knows.

Actually I was thinking about that a few years ago.

What if time was the 4th dimension, and the passing of time was the expansion of the universe into this dimension, so time and motion are invariably linked.

This could mean wonders of possibilities, but it relys on the principles that time is dependant on motion, this isn't too off though, after all as you approach the speed of light time appears to slow down.

I have no clue why as of yet, but it could have to do with this proportionality.

Although, from what I've read, most temporal physicists and quantum temporal physicists seem to be so "beyond" us, we really can't discuss this in any way but philosophically, which actually those same scientists are now finding themselves having to rely upon more and more, or so I've read.

Time is a confusing thing, but it is there, or we'd be able to manipulate things beyond imagination, which we can't. Time is the law, something we can't escape, or nothing would work, and nothing would happen.
