Not in the B-Theory of time since all events past, preset and future exist simultaneously. Somewhere in space time I'm still a handsome twenty year old, with flowing locks, and girls chasing me!

Hmm. I never thought about it that way. That's a pretty good point.Originally posted by Zymologist View PostI suppose, but it still seems fundamentally different than the other distance dimensions. Time can only ever be traversed in one direction, for example. (Right?)
Maybe it makes more sense if we think about dimensions like distance in terms of vectors so that negatives don't come into play?"I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard RavenhillComment

It still is not physical - correct, and it still effects the physical? And I'm not sure if those who hold to the B-Theory of time would agree that it is an emergent property of entropy. Since in the B-Theory time is actually static. From what I understand.Originally posted by Wally View PostAtheism is the cult of death, the death of hope.
