This thought bothered me last night; couldn't sleep. We humans "created" many things, from morals and gods to "good" and "evil." We create man-made hypothetical constructs.
Does this include time? Does time by itself exist, or did we just create the concept, like we created the days, the months, and the years? It seems to me we created time, because we watched the way celestial bodies and planets moved, so we made a slipshod sort of spreadsheet, time, to correlate with the movements. What would happen if all planets and spacial bodies stopped... moving? How would we create days and months? I'm thinking there is no "time." There just "is," and us within it, we slowly succumb to entropy, illness, etc.
If time never existed, does that mean all of existence never had a beginning, or did it always exist?
Why are you asking us when you could have Morgan Freeman tell you?
