If a photon has consciousness...

and right at the onset of the big bang...a photon was emitted in the explosion and travelled through a vaccum at the speed of light...completely undistrupted ...until right now.

And right at this minute, the photon was slowed down to a stop.


From the perspective of the photon, then no time has passed at all from the big bang until now...4.5 billion years is just a blink of an eye ...right?

?????
