But what about time? Did you remember that? Time IS constant and so it IS instant, show me one place in the entire universe that is in a separate time period then the rest.
Time does determine if something is instant, and if it has a delay then tons of phenomenon would appear and the universe would literally be ripping itself apart and vanishing at rifts and breaking points. So "nothing is "instant"" doesn't hold up that well to this example.
I have no idea what STqD is, so you might want to explain the S, T, q, and D a bit if you wish to continue in that subject.
If you tie a weight to a string then spin it, then cut the rope the weight will fly away. This should server as a good model of gravity if the orbited object vanishes, which won't happen but it’s the first thing that came to my mind. When you cut the string the weight goes in a straight path as of when you cut it.
If gravity was not instant the weight would still move in a circle until the force of gravity was no longer acting on the weight, then it would go in a straight line. But this does create a few other problems, what happens when half of the weight is still under the effect of the gravity and the other half is not? And how about the string? These problems can be solved since a balancing point can be found without too much difficulty, but the fact that only half of an object is under the effect of gravity does not make sense and I don't believe we have ever seen that happen.
Also, we have no idea how much energy it is possible to create, mini-black holes require, as I believe, about 100,000,000 GHz of energy, which we fall drastically short of. Cosmic (not you Cosmik, it’s a really long, really weird science thing which no one really knows anything about) strings also take an incredible amount of energy and gravity to produce, but what are they? They should be something that was created during the big bang, but that gives no explanation to how they were created, or what was taken to create them. Simply, they would be created from a twisting in time where forces compiled upon them to form them, but that does not make sense and tell us what they are made out of. And we really have no way to tell because time can go in whatever direction or at whatever speed it chooses without us knowing it (yes, we would not have any idea what is happening, do characters in a movie know what is happening as it is being fast-forwarded or rewound?). If a dimension past that of time as we see it is added, in which time goes at a constant speed, those strings could exist in that but nowhere else. So the first dimension of time would be in a first person view (ours), then the second would be in a third person view (the view of whoever is watching the video). Now this has become way too complex and I just hope I don’t start thinking about the three directional dimensions that we already have in this new sense, too late. This is really confusing yet I can’t take my mind off it…
Even with these two dimensions of time, time would still be a constant in each and every dimension that could be added onto that, it would just speed up or slow down a bit but it would still be there and have its instant affect everywhere.
And since we can create a great amount of energy if we destroy a bit of matter, how much energy would we be able to create if we destroyed a bit of time, which is infinite? It should be much more but I don’t believe we would have a way to destroy time, it would be like taking a year out of Earths history, but when it hits January 1st after the year that was removed everything should move a year ahead instantly, or would it just set the human race back a year and have us keep moving at our normal pace?
I will just stop now and hope what I have said is not terribly confusing or just plain weird.
O yeah: I hereby claim all rights and ownership to the ideas and thought previously stated in this thread including but not limited to a second dimension of time, as long as they have not been previously claimed by other parties in which that event was not known.
-Hey, Isaac Newton had a huge battle with Gottfried Leibniz over who had the rights to calculus, which Newton didn’t even win fairly. In the off chance that I am correct in anything I said I want it to remain my idea.
Heh, you bite waaaaay to easy, I made all that mumbo-jumbo up.
