    I'm sorry I am not fluent in gibberish. I will move on to a thread where English is the language of choice.

    If you have questions about my "gibberish" ask me to explain. Just dismissing something because you do not understand the language is closing your mind to different perspectives.

    Ask which part is not understandable to you and I'll be happy to try to explain it in more understandable terms. I am not familiar with all the scientific terms, so I am forced to use metaphors., which may seem strange at first, but is the most efficient way I know how to make a proposition. I'd love to be corrected on details or usage of proper terms, but instant dismissal is not very productive to an informal but possibly meaningful exchange.

    And looking at my post again, where did I not use the English language? I was not speaking Chinese was I? I believe every word I used can be found in the dictionary. Look them up and perhaps you may get a better understanding of what I am saying.

    Which has what, exactly, to do with Time (which was my point).

    I have seen your posts, I would just be inviting more gibberish.
    It is not that I do not understand the language, the problem is that you are writing nonsense (gibberish). I also am not interested in having a long tedious back and forth that accomplishes nothing.
    Have a good day.

    Looking for the consensus I'm gonna say the following based on the
    philochron table.

    ELEMENT ........... PROPERTY .......... MAGNITUDE
    ... space ................ extension .............. length, area, volume
    .. becoming .......... time ...................... duration

    Time is the continuous succession of moments or points. Time is the mathematical becoming.
    Duration is the interval between two points in time.
    In this case both time and duration are magnitive.

    It would be the end of Earth time. Not of Universal time with is associated with continued existence (chronology) of the universe (spacetime), but just the end of time for the chronology of existence of Earth itself.

    IMO, each physical object has it's own timeline which starts with the formation of the object and ends with its demise.

    Some objects have a timeline duration of nano-seconds such as bosons and fermions, other objects have time lines (chronology) so long that they can only be described as having a half-life, which means that after a certain length of time (a measurement of duration) half of the objects no longer exists and for that portion time does no longer exist.

    I am really not trying to make it complicated. Is this not why we identify space time or any physical object as having 3 Dimensions + Time, a sum of three physically measurable properties plus the duration of time associated with their physical existence?

    Irrefutable. Accomplished objective.

    IMO, Magnitude = Value ( a mathematical potential)

    I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "magnitive". Are you just saying that a duration in time has a magnitude? Like a 3 second duration is "magnitive"?

    In what ways is your "philocron" idea different from standard physical notions of space and time? Where does it take us that standard physics cannot?

    I thought you had promised not to use that word ("potential") incorrectly anymore?

    Only if I used it out of context.

    What is magnitive refers to the property of beings that can be measured,
    but It is imperceptible. What is magnitive is objective, but not concrete;
    for example in Physics: force, gravity and time. We feel weight, but not gravity.

    In the philochron table space and time are considered independent.

    standard physical notions of space and time - make sense

    In what ways is your "philocron" idea different - they are crap

    Where does it take us that standard physics cannot? - Nowhere

    But inescapably connected. As long as space exists time will emerge.
    IOW time is a latent ability which becomes explicated during the unfolding of space.
    A latent Universal potential which emerges simultaneously with the Present.

    Combined it acquires the magnitude of spacetime. IMO duration always measures the past..

    We could never tell the difference. But there is the question; Does future time already exist?
    Or is it always Now or in the Past?
    If future time does not yet exist, Time is a latent potential, which becomes expressed only as Now.
    When Now has passed it is the Past.

    You live only in NOW. As soon as NOW turned up past vanished. As soon as future turned up it became NOW

    Pre NOW and post NOW are not in existence

    How would you segment the past or future? In 1 second slices? How would you stick the 1 second slices together?

    You are forever stuck in NOW

    Please may I ask, which to me is a obvious question?
    This time you wish to travel in (either back to the past or forward to the future) where exactly does this time hang out? Where is any aspect of the past or future located?

    And you are. The "potential" in "potential theory" does not refer to a "value" or "mathematical potential", but to a "physical potential". This is literally stated in the second sentence of the lead of that Wikipedia article.

    I understand all that and I agree with all the subtleties.

    The question was if Future Time already existed. I's a simple "yes" or "no" question.

    It can be physical potential.

    I clearly explained that I was using the term in it's generic form, which is at the top of the any encyclopedia ; "That which may become reality"
