I read some "time" ago that the perception of time arises from entropy occuring in the brain. Has anyone else read anything about this?

Haven't read anything about that but have my own opinion.
Time is static, it doesn't go anywhere. It's like a river. Does a river move? If so, why will the same river be there tomorrow? The river doesn't move, the water does.
Time is already complete from beginning to end and possibly back again, only our perception travels through it.

Per Einstein's theories, we have discovered we can slightly adjust our perception of time by either slowing it down or speeding it up, granted this is by very little. Are we manipulating time when we do this? No, we're manipulating our perception.

I am a baby just born, and I am an old man watching my grandchildren. Both of those events are already in place, one I have experienced, the other I have not - but that experience is still there. One day my perception of time will catch up to it.

Quantum physics experimentation has concluded that if you prick your finger the corresponding part of the brain shows immediate stimulation even though there is a definite physical distance distance from the finger to the brain for the for the sensation to travel. When the same part of the brain is stimulated directly the same immediate resulting sensation occurs. This would surmise that the brain anticipates the prick of the finger prior to it actually happening, therefore the perception of time may indeed arise from the brain.

it extremely is ignorant and racist to assert that "blacks" prefer to do something. in basic terms persons prefer to go forward. the place are "we" going? That in basic terms does not even make experience. a number of you will college, some are going to paintings, some are going to penitentiary...each and every person has a distinctive tale. If history taught us something, it is that racial categorizing isn't useful for all and sundry. Eurocentric society? What? once you're talking approximately socialism, a eurocentric society is strictly what i'm attempting to keep away from by vote casting for Republicans. fairly than focusing on what color you're and no remember in case you and others who journey are "going" someplace, you may identifiy your self ideologically and choose what's perfect for the rustic as an entire. Take a stand and %. a area. permit's decide the place usa is going, no longer some imagined sub-team.

the question of the nature of time is prima facie independent of your perception of time

time probably doesn't move forward, there would be need of a super time to move in

it's more likely indeed things happen in the world and this is about as close as you can get to time, some sort of abstraction over the order of events

1.
Light quanta can go infinitely far in zero time.
The closer you get to the speed of light quanta,
the slower time goes for you
in your reference frame.
Than faster you go the slower time goes,
but the speed of light quanta always stays the same.
The Lorenz transformation converts this.
2.
If you are a photon, time is frozen, and your own clock shows zero.
If you are a real person in a spacecraft,
you aren't traveling at the speed of light,
you can move only at a speed close to it .

Time expresses the sequence of existence of of phenomena which replace one another. Time is irreversible i.e every material process develops only in one direction - from the past to the future.
So time doesn't move neither forward or backward .
Time is pure abstaction which exist only in men's conciousness .

"Time" is a concept devised by "man" to mark events in their "lives". To GOD, THE CREATOR, there is no "time". The BIBLE says that, "A day is like a thousand years to GOD and a thousand years are like a day."

When "Judgement Day" comes, as the writer's of the BIBLE call it, there will be no more "time" and the GREAT BOOKS will be opened and every person born from the CREATION until the 2nd Coming will have to "account" for themselves and be "judged" by GOD, ALMIGHTY, THE CREATOR. Those who are judged "holy" will be allowed to go with HIM to the "New Earth", "Heaven", those judged "unjust" will go to "HELL" and seperated from GOD. Thus starts, "Eternity", "Forever", which man's mind cannot conceive as a never-ending concept.

No, but is time really something, or is it just our way of recording?
Is it a straight line, or a circle that you can go back on?? does it not exist?
I think there is such thing as time, but its so hard to justify...
