| Re: simple theory aka Occam’s Razor I’m sure there are living things that do not have a sense of time. Single cell organisms, for example. You ask if time is related to temperature. The time that it takes to boil my kettle is certainly related to the temperature of the water. You appear to be trying to drawn a general principle from something which, by it’s very nature, is individual and not general. Time is not a thing-in-itself. Time is a measure of the duration of the process of real material things. Abstractionist paradigm physics assumes that time in relation to the duration of the process of the Earth, (the length of a day and a year), remains constant over time. However, this time is not constant over time. Time is relative to space, and space is composed of emission that varies and is the context within which time is measured. Stephen |
