RE: What If Time Is Not a Straight Line?

in #quantum-physics • 8 days ago (edited)

What you (us) experience is : Conscious experience of the passage of time.

No, I regard this to be an error.
As far as I've understood of such things there is no time as an objective fact.
Time is a concept of humans, and it is a 'transcendential' one, that means: beyond sensitive experience.
Time is like a vessel or a framework within which we perceive and experience the world.
But what is the world outside our consciousnesses?
We don't know. We never will. It is impossible.

Quantum physics is contra-intuitive. But nevertheless it deals with phaenomena within the world.
The assumed Being itself is not touched by science. It is no 'world behind the world' as if we were Alices inside a hall or mirrors and 'behind' the mirrors faced with some others.

Wonder is the beginning of philosophy, not philosophy itself.

Sort:  

I suppose the fascinating part is that the more we learn about the universe, the more questions seem to arise. Science helps us explore what we can observe, while philosophy takes us to the boundaries of what we can know. Perhaps we don't need to find all the answers to appreciate the mystery.

The reality doesn’t necessarily have to make sense to our intuition to be real. It challenges not only what we know about the universe, but also the limits of how we understand it.

Very true!
