Why is it that we are in this exact point in time?

Question

If time has no begining and no end....or even if it does, we are some where in the middle of some vastly huge time span, what are the chances that we exist right this moment? Why not 20 years from now, or 50 years in the past? Or a million years from now?

Answer 1

Did you ever wonder if maybe we will be at this exact place in time 20 or 50 years from now?Maybe I answered this question a thousand times before. Have you ever wondered if time really is a span witha begining and an end or even a never ending...thing. What if time is merely a fixed point. What if time merely seems much longer than it actually is.

if you are still reading this answer/question consider this:

you are at a computer reading this entry. Think about the last time you laughed or your first kiss or some other memory of yours. What if it never happened?What if somehow you have whatever many years of false memories and you will never collect new memories. What if all there was is now and you're wasting it at a computer.

okay, I'm starting to confuse myself but I am basically trying to suggest that maybe we are at this exact point in time right now because all there is is this exact point in time.

If you get a chance, watch Dark City and/or Groundhog Day. It might make you think.

Answer 2

The universe may be processed one tick a time. It just so happens that the current ticket of time is the one being processed. It is almost like someone creating a movie: the current frame comes into existence after all the previous ones are finished.

It is my opinion that the universe simply did not start at a time. Rather, the universe just "magically" started without a specific cause or previous event to cause it. If you believe in God, then you could say that God did not start at a specific time, nor did he start the universe at a specific time. Rather, God and his universe "magically" started without a specific cause or previous event to cause them.

Answer 3

In actuality, we are not here. Quantum physics suggests that the observation of a phenomenon or act changes the phenomenon/act in some way. By noting the exact time, you change it and it has become a different time.
This is driving science mad by the way. It doesn't do much with my bedtime either.

Answer 4

I believe, we are in this exact point of time, because, this is where we are meant to be, here and now!!

It is our destiny/fate, or maybe God's perfect plan for our time here on earth........do not look beyond this day, for it is the here and now that is important!

Time does have a beginning and an end....."from cradle to grave".

Answer 5

We are here, we are there, and we are elsewhere....time is a human concieved notion to allow our simple minds to undertand and categorize things.

Have you ever looked up the defenition of "time" in the dictionary...it is astounding...and I am talking a good dictionary, not like a pocket one.

Answer 6

We are at such a time where you can sometimes look around and see that no one really sincerely cares.

And others care much more then you will ever realize.
