Can you say that time exists?
It is proven that time stops when you are moving at the speed of light. Time as we know it on earth is a man made notion, for it is really a measurement of distance - a revolution around once. Therefore it would be relative to where you were and how fast you are moving and not at all a constant.
Blocking the man made thinking about time, and suggesting it doesn't exist, therefore I am able to see tomarrow, for it is happening already, somewhere.
Knowledge is power...and a narrow mind fills quickly.Time is definitely relative and acts differently on many variables. Gravity affects time so even just flying in a commercial airliner "slows" your day down by milliseconds.
Einstein proved the speed of light example. It's pretty fascinating.

Does time exist?
Yes, time exists, because we've defined it, even relatively, by science.
Time exists because we've proved it to be a reality.
Reality exists. Reality exist free of independent thought, desires, will, or wishes. Reality is all knowable.
We know time exists, because we can measure it or watch it go by. Hence, it is part of reality.- Jerami

Time is a word created by mankind. We are unable to maintain our sanity if we were to experience reality as it really is. We had to establish a dimensional understanding of reality by assuming a beginning with one single directional movement.
Time was imagined by man in an effort to focus upon an imagined reality that we are able to deal with.
I am not swearing to the accuracy or validity of what I just said. BUT it is a plausible possibility that I refuse to dismiss.This is a pretty good overview of time:

Some of it is opinion, but there are a lot of good points. Photon acceleration helps to explain the speed of light adjustment of time in space.

time may not exist at the most fundamental level of physical reality.
time is a part of the fabric of the universe. how do we 'measure' a dimension?
clock time is not measured. we can't see it or capture it.

I think we can agree on one thing. Time (as we know it) did not always exist.

You are capable of using your mind! Bravo! You can write something like this but are ignorant to believe the bible as absolute when you don't believe time as absolute?
The subject of the speed of light and the inconsistency of time can be a good thread. Since these realities are not constant; with what degree can we ascertain any certainty?
The constant speed of light and consistency of TIME was once thought to be a reality. Because the beliefs concerning a reality is proven false does not eliminate the reality of its existence.
I have never said that I believe the common interpretations that have been taught concerning scripture. In fact I agree with you that "Religion" is flawed. I believe the basic fundimentals of the bible; BUT for the past 1900 years teachings of interpretations of scripture have flourished leaving important truths on the wayside.
We can not assume that because an arrow goes astray that the bow is defective.- 78

If man needed to create time to make sense of the world, how do you know if you will in fact be able to maintain your sanity if you attempt to dismiss time as part of your reality?
Interesting topic. I am currently reading (On Time) by Michael Shallis. We manage the progression of our existence by breaking it up into meaningful increments and call it Time. We determined the atomic clock to be the most accurate but in order to keep in step with our reality we use it in combination with astrological time. Adjusting for the unevenness of Earths rotation.

the timekeepers themselves at the government lab where the atomic clock is kept have stated that the clock does not measure time.
time is defined by the number of clicks of their clocks.

I am swearing to nothing but this is what I think is a plausable reality.
God said that he IS the beginning he IS present, he IS in the future. Seems to me that he said that all time, past,future, and present is NOW. The human mind can not process all of this in its physical form. He would be jumping out of the way of a bus the day before the bus leaves the depot; he would be doing stuff like that. He had to refuse to accept all of that other reality that his mind could not process coherently. He focused on the now!! After some "?time?" he opens one eye and focused in a single direction. His perception of time developed in a straight forward single direction. "Yea" the nightmares went away and the concept of time has been established.
So you might say that we all are our own prisoners of our own mind.
And you might ask, What is REALITY , really
And is anyone realy a free thinker??

Then at the same time,

Otherwise expect sorrow."

I don't think anyone one can really be a free thinker. We are too attached to the ideologies of someone's theories or the interpretation of something in the universe. But we can never really think beyond what we know. We can learn more about who we are and where we live, but never really go beyond the scope of what is actually in existence. If time is movement, then time with God should also reflect movement. We say time passes, it never stands still. If God is in the present and future now then like your statement that at the speed of light time stops. God is without or outside of time. And since we are very much captive to the confines of time in our physical state, we can never really know how God really perceives time. Time is relative unfortunately, in the end we will look at our clocks and realize we have some obligation that requires our attention at this specific time.

This is not correct, the masters are just guides . One needs to connect these teaching with his own life in order to understand their meaning.One needs to become a master - a Buddha or a Christs is the purpose of life.
It is imperative that one becomes free thinker.
You can gain enlightenment and be one with god, then you will go into a timeless state .
With god all is happening now, the past, present and future.

Knowledge is power...and a narrow mind fills quickly.I'm a physics nerd and just want to say how great it is to read all of the insightful posts on this subject.your all wonderful!here's a mind bender for ya.Imaginary Physics!No, i didn't make it up,honest.So here's the ground work.The basic particle is a Tack-eon(did I spell that right?).this particles base speed is the speed of light,it accelerates from there.What do y'all suppose would happen to time in that scenario?...

Tachyon
it is hypothetical. Time is cherished by those who believe to have a begining and is most certainly is expecting all come to an end.
We all have been given time or space to get to know our true self whether we are the Sons of The All and unlimited Goodness, self existing one.
Or are we sons of the his rival who existence is bound within time and space and way is perpetually evil.
For Goodness is destined to perpetually grow and prosper.
While evil is destined to disintegrate into nothing similar to fire which would grow as long as there are things to be consumed but finally will consume itself.
What we do with time eventually tells us who we are.
For are we busy with the things that will eventually perish or are we busy with the things that are perpetual?
Remember the only goodness that is truly good is the one that comes from the pure heart tried by truth (Christ)My key words are "meaningful increments". I did not say that time exists. I said we attempt to manage what we are experiencing by breaking up the progression of our reality into what we consider to be "meaningful increments". You can tap your finger on the table also and call it time because it is relative to your reality. The time we use is an attempt to manage universal reality.
