1123581321 Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 (edited) Hi Could it be that if time is just perhaps a perceived illusion of consciousness through intelligent life, could it be justified in a type of thought experiment, that as we perceive and have known the universe to have been here for a very long time, it has existed only momentarily and as localized point in the present. In saying so, the time back to the big bang and the big bang itself are momentary phenomenon's and sine we are conscious beings, they can be traced through quantum information of the momentary universe. And the future in just continuous wave-function collapse of the fabric of space brought upon by consciousness and relayed into occurrences of reality by our projected psyche.

swansont Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 Sounds like Last-Tuesdayism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the tree Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 Occam's Razor takes down Last-Tuesdayism fairly neatly, the spontaneous creation of a convincing impression of age is one whole layer more complex than actual age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
