:WTF: wet panties? :icon_neutral: :icon_eek: :icon_e_biggrin: :LolLolLolLol:I got mine...but due to laughter reading the rant :icon_lol: ay ay@Bec, you keep repeating the words "mental illness". Well, each one here is individual and, said by themselves, some of the members do suffer from some conditions. However, thinking that a person like Michael Jackson -knowing how his life/career went and finances looked like in the last years- would fake his dead is not unusual or abnormal. Also, the way the family is behaving is feeding this scenario.The satellite convos, interpretations and conections/links that merged at times around the hoax talk is what made the subject look "nuttier" than it is.Michael, imo, is not coming back to tell the world that he faked his dead, but that does not mean that he may be faked it for whatever reason.Lets think that even people around him now are talking about Michael´s mental condition. What if he had a mental break down which was irreversible?, what if he really got a brain ictus?, what if they decided to consider him dead because Michael "the artist" is really no longer such but a man who does not remember who he is or cannot perform any longer?Many questions pop up from doubt.His family got closure but, and i talk for myself, cannot get to understand what the real reason would have been for him to be gone.
Isaac Newton wrote in his Principia:Absolute space, in its own nature, without relation to anything external, remains always similar and immovable. Absolute, true, and mathematical time, is itself, and from its own nature, flows equably without relation to anything external. This concept of time seems natural enough. We all accept it almost unthinkingly. But is the universe only a great big clock? Is time not related to anything else but itself? Every idea of time that we can possibly think of is deeply connected to a concrete physical event: the swing of a pendulum, the vibrations of a quartz crystal, the orbit of the earth, the quantum leaping of atoms, the motions of magnetic and electric fields, the lives of suns, your lunch with your friend, and on and on. Without such events, what would time consist of? You can't have time in a void because there would be nothing to relate it to. Time makes sense only when it's connected to something.Here's another thought experiment. Imagine that a rock is the only inhabitant of the universe, and ask yourself these questions:•What position does it have? Does this question have any meaning? No, because position can only be defined with respect to another position or thing. •How about what size is it? Again we have nothing to compare it to. •Does it continue to exist? Well, it doesn't change, there's nothing that's going to come along and impact it. •So how can we tell the passage of time? You can't. Both space and time have no meaning at all. That's a rather extreme scenario but one that illustrates the fact that it's the interaction of things, objects, people—all of the things that exist in the universe that provides a framework in which time and space have meaning. And, of course, we must also ask if time has any meaning for anything except us. Is time meaningful to animals, plants, or gods? Universal Constants An atomic year is the time it would take an electron to “orbit” the nucleus of an atom if it were a miniature solar system. Different elements have different atomic years. In reality, electrons don't orbit the nucleus, but it's a convenient way to express a length of time for comparison. A nanosecond is equivalent to one billionth of a second. Time, most importantly, is a form of perception. We often speak of our “sense” of time. Just as there is no such thing as color without the eye to discern it, so an instant or an hour or a day is nothing without an event to mark it. We go about marking and discerning in a variety of ways. Perceptions of time change from country to country, from person to person, and even within us, from time to time. “A watched pot never boils” is a statement about the relativity of subjective time. Or “time's fun when you're having flies,” oops, I mean “time flies when you're having fun” is another. Because we measure time by events that mark it, it should not be surprising that our sense of time is intimately influenced by the nature of the events themselves.
Mindwarps Immanuel Kant, one of the all-time great philosophers, thought that the mind arranges and orders perceptions of the world through active organizing principles. These principles he called categories. Space, time, causality, and others are the categories that present us with the way in which we experience the world. He thought, as did many others, such as St. Augustine, that time was only a subjective experience that we projected out onto the phenomenal world. It has no meaning or reality outside of us.

From perception view point time is an emergent concept which our mind creates :over-react-smiley:There is a real phenomenon a continuous change through which we live. To understand time we have to understand the mechanism which brings about this continuous change from which our mind creates the illusion of flow of time.I copied and pasted from somewhere...

wet panties?
The key to understanding the universe is admire its order and its harmony.
So we have Time we divide up into categories of Past Present and Future .The past can be thought of as a collection of memories, though we can only remember it in the presentThe future is only a mental construct in the present. It remains in the realm of hopes and dreams until such TIME as it becomes the present.In an effort to cope with change- we have invented time........Leigh Brasington.Time is a creation of man to try and measure the rate of change of the present. We are always in the NOW...albeit an ever changing Now.
The intricately complex essence of the universe can be simplified in every existing form of life. The meaning of life is found in every entity…..a multitude of parallels, a plethora of levels…ALL----> reflective of that single nucleus

Reality---> it's all perspectiveTime----> it's all relativeit is not TIME yet bc the recipe is STILL SIMMERING.......it is not PERFECT yet.........thats how I see it.........thank you for explaining MR FRONT.........
