Time:Nature's way of keeping everything from happening all at once

Discussion in 'Chit Chat' started by omegapoint, Dec 19, 2008.

  1. 1. An event occurs, observable from photons that leave it and
    are captured by a human retina.

    2. The event is is observed by a hypothetical infinite number of
    people lined up -- or just a sufficiently large number of people.

    3. The event is observed/perceived at imperceptively different
    moments in time by each observer.

    4. If the universe is infinite ( and if it isn't then what the heck is
    it?) then every event that has ever occured or will occur will
    never stop occuring for some hypothetical observer.
