Michael Stuart Kelly Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 13 minutes ago, Brant Gaede said: Time is a measurement. --Brant Brant, A measurement of what? And what is the standard? Itself, that does not exist? I know I can measure time based on my growth, for an easy example. Is it your position that only the opposite is true, that growth does not happen over time and that one cannot measure time because time is measurement itself? I hold space and time to be corollaries of the axiomatic concepts, especially existence and identity. I cannot imagine existence without space and time being a part of it, nor can I imagine an existent having a specific identity without that identity existing within space and time. The rest is nothing but ghosts. Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does time measure the motion of consciousness? If that is true, how does consciousness move? Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we measure consciousness, we don't measure vehicle paths. Try it: Q: How aware are you today? A: 500 miles by speeding car, meaning 5 hours. Does that make any sense?
