Fact is time exists and is not a man-made creation; otherwise all events occur at the exact same time. From the beginning of existance to the very end, all condensed into one singular moment. The "second" is a structured unit to measure time established by man, but to say time is a creation by man is giving us way too much credit- we simply live in it. But don't take my word for it, why do you go and talk to a physics professor about it?
Exactly! Humans created the concept of time. No other species does this, along with religion and other things that are not necessary to exist or survive.
We articulated the concept of time, we didn't create it. It will still pass without a descriptive reference. And you are right, no other species has done this- their handwriting skills are dick.
Plenty of species' have methods of measuring time. Just because we as humans have a place in our lexicon used to describe time, doesn't mean the notion is exclusive to our species.
Name one please.
Hibernation, for one . . . heartbeats, blinks, boners, mating seasons, bowel movements, menstration, death . . .
Bees, for one! http://www.thaindian.com/newsportal/health/can-bees-tell-time-of-the-day_100387789.html
I wouldn't call any of those things a "measure of time". No other species has a measure of time, days, months, years, seconds, etc... Those were all words created by man, in other words, man created the concept of time.
From the same article-Bees, for one! http://www.thaindian.com/newsportal/health/can-bees-tell-time-of-the-day_100387789.html
Also it's commonly known that most domesticated animals observe schedules.
AMEN Koosh brother! similarly to basketball them white boys cant rap worth shit
Not sure I understand the point of you quoting this. The bees concept of time is based off of environmental conditions just like ours is.
I would say their sleep cycles would dictate their measure of a day- regardless if you choose to recognize it or not.
Interesting you would say that, since most physics equations (describing processes that existed before man) have a variable for time, indicating even the most mundane of events in this universe are still dependant on time.
I honestly think you're over thinking this.
He's probably under-thinking it - regardless, he's still making a valid point. Plenty of species have ways of observing and potentially measuring time. Just because we understand it a little more and have several words to aid in describing it does not mean we invented time. It's an absurd notion.
haha no doubt don.
