Saying time is an illusion is to say that there is no past to be remembered if there only is a "NOW". If there is a past, present and future, then time is a reality. Whether people want to admit it or not. Our clocks may or may not all be wrong, but if there is a beginning, there will be an end in time.

Anyway, to answer your question; If you could stop time, (all except yours) then I would say it is only logical that you would age since time remains constant for you. However, if you were to stop time for all, (including yours) I would say you would not age. I must say though, I really cannot perceive how this would be possible.

I think it will end on it's own and no other way. Through the natural order. I do think that we can make ourselves, and our perception of time vary given the right circumstances. Like they say, "Time flies when your having fun". I have found, personally that is is usually (but not always) true.

Scientifically though, the sun shadow's remain consistent and the clocks tick at the same speed. So.. who knows for sure. Great question though. Really can one thinking.

It is appointed once to die and after that the Judgement.

This refers to physical death. Next is Judgement on you soul.

EtERnity in heaven or hell.

Time will never be stopped.

If you stopped time of course you would not age because to age takes time.

You cannot age if there is no time. All the body's function would stop and you will be petrified, and you will not noticed time stopped.

Time is an illusion, created by man. Only NOW exists. Think about it. The future only happens now, and the past can only be remembered now, but is happening continually, now...! :)

its a dimention. What your really asking is whether you can stop your movement in time. That is known as a memory.
