There was a question on a recent Exam in my history class about "When did man invent time?" Now I realize i could have answered with the answer he [my teacher] wanted but I really wanted to discuss this to him, so I simply wrote on the Exam "Time was not invented by man, it was created with the universe", and as I expected.. he marked it wrong, so I argued it with him after class. I explained to him that time wasn't created by man, and he argued back that all time is, is a measurement of our existence, and that what I'm thinking of is that existence was created with our universe. Then I explained to him that yes he was right.. Man did create a way to "MEASURE time" and that a "second" is no different from a "metre" when talking about "distances".. I got the question wrong, and am wondering who is right in this situation!
