A toy universe made up of two photons only, helped scientists reach the conclusion that time does not exist. (1)
We have built all too much on the elusive foundation of the passage of time.
When that goes away all that is left is… nothing? Or everything?
Time exists and does not exist simultaneously. That is, I am the Eternal Timekeeper, the Paradox. I exclaim I am not the Timekeeper, as in the title of this thread and the scientific conclusion of a hypothetical scenario. Hence, I am left with Eternity. But in the Eternity that I am, I record my Eternity, that is, keep time. Just like Me, the Paradox. Peace, Ik
P.S. On a more normative level, have you read “The End of Time” by Julian Barbour?
