5. What is time?

Although the concept of time is one of the easiest things to learn that almost everybody understands, no one knows exactly why it exists and where it came from. Physicists define time as the progression of events. It only moves in one direction. It is possible to move forward in time, but never backward.
Time is something that we cannot touch, see, taste, but we can measure its passage and we can feel it. We can’t know if time will ever end, because if the Universe continues to expand, time will continue, but if a new Big Bang occurs, our time line would end and a new one would start over.

Let nature take it’s course, natural human immunity is the best cure for it, so stop trying to fix what God has already perfected…
In order to HAVE time you need at least two objects that are not like each other in any manner. In the situation where that does exist movement of one relative to the other is time. We have that situation.
Time does NOT exist. It is a virtual concept created by man to measure how fast something changes. IE distance traveled per hour. And if you thing about time travel is absolutely ridiculous because to travel back in “time” you would have to move every atom in the universe back to its position at that time. Going forward in time is even more difficult because you would have to predict all the random events that would occur in the universe and then move all atoms in the universe to that position. Impossible to that. So time was created by man, a very useful concept but still doesn’t have “existence”.
