What Is Time?

 At first thought about the question, most people have quick responses. However, scientists are actually deeply exploring the subject as it is much more complicated than what the average layperson perceives.

Nobody Knows What Time Really Is. But it might be this - - -

God Is Incoherent Regarding Time

"If God exists outside of time—not in time, but timeless and eternal—what would that mean about God's nature? God would never 'lose' the past or anticipate the future. God would not need to know the future, because to a timeless God, there would be no future. Everything would be ever-present in one timeless moment. But how could a timeless God relate to human beings?"

Time is not an abstract reality like mathematics, logic, and morality. It is part of our physical reality (matter, energy, and time). Any action within our reality takes time. In fact, the natural state of our reality is motion that is tempered by external resistance (link).

Time Is Mysterious

Intuition/Common Sense break down not only in the findings within Quantum Mechanics but Time as well:

"What is Time? Tackle one of the greatest problems in all of science—the nature of time itself—in "Mysteries of Modern Physics: Time," a groundbreaking course by Dr. Sean Carroll, one of the foremost researchers in this field. In this second video from the 24-video series, Professor Carroll approaches time from a philosophical perspective. “Presentism” holds that the past and future are not real; only the present moment is real. However, the laws of physics appear to support “eternalism”—the view that all of the moments in the history of the universe are equally real."

The Arrow Of Time Is Real, But Still A Mystery

"We do understand the arrow of time from a thermodynamic perspective, and that’s an incredibly valuable and interesting piece of knowledge. But if you want to know why yesterday is in the immutable past, tomorrow will arrive in a day and the present is what you’re living right now, thermodynamics won’t give you the answer. Nobody, in fact, understands what will."

An analysis of this major issue in physics.

Where Does Our Arrow Of Time Come From?
