							False Time Perception
      Hypothesis
  By Philosophical Gamer
   (Hypothesis name not final)
                What I Mean
• What I mean is that the rate of time
  everywhere is the same rate
• It is the rate of time that may vary, which I’ll
  explain after the main argument
• The simplest way to explain this idea is that
  we are not measuring the passage of time
  correctly.
      Example to Relate – Part 1
• Imagine a fictional city where they based all of
  their time measurements by a large battery
  powered clock
• Eventually, the clock would slow down as the
  battery wore down, even if it was charged, it
  would slow down gradually
• Because the people base all of their time
  measurement on that clock, to them, time has
  slowed or they have sped up
      Example to Relate – Part 2
• They don’t use any other method, so to them,
  that’s the absolute truth
• If the clock stopped, then to them, they are
  travelling through time much faster than
  possible
• But really, others outside of the city not
  dependent on the clock would see that time is
  still passing by normally
              Faster is Slower
• The main point comes down to this, it is not time
  that accelerates or slows down at all, it’s just
  showing a similar effect as if it did
• When things are going faster, their reactions are
  slower, creating the illusion of slowed or sped up
  time
• It doesn’t matter the force causing the speed
  change so much as that it does for the main
  message here
• This would explain why time seems to pass by at
  different rates with different speeds
              The Math to It
• I don’t know any formula that explains it, that
  I have not looked into enough, but the answer
  probably lies in quantum physics.
• It does explain though how faster particles
  deteriorate slower, and combine slower
                 Time Travel
• By this logic, time travel as we understood it,
  is completely impossible
• There have been tests where particles appear
  just before others disappear, but that is no
  proof that it’s time travel
  – How do we know if it’s the same particle?
  – Even if the charasteics are the same?
   The Fourth Dimension – Part 1
• Now in recent years, the idea that time is the
  fourth dimension has come up. This is still
  completely possible.
• Why this works is a very common
  misconception about the word, “dimension”
• The fourth dimension in this case is not a
  place, but a measurement addition.
   The Fourth Dimension – Part 2
• The fourth coordinate would be used to
  represent time.
• For instance, 94 degrees west, 24 degrees
  south, 5000 feet in the air, 1968 A.D.
• That would be a place in four dimensions.
• It just happened in the past.
• The coordinates mentioned though don’t have
  any real significance other than an example.
          Illusion with a Purpose
• Continuing this logic, it’s likely time is nothing but
  an illusion
• It’s possible there is some physical force creating
  it, but most likely there isn’t, and it’s just an
  emergence from the result of atomic reactions.
• Just because it’s an illusion however, doesn’t
  mean we can’t use it to measure things
• We just need to remember time is a simplifier,
  not an existing process
  Different Rates of Time – Part 1
• Earlier, I mentioned that time’s passage
  everywhere is the same, but that rate may
  vary
• What I mean by that is, if the rate of time
  everywhere changed, we wouldn’t know
• That would be in grander time
• A continued explanation follows…
  Different Rates of Time – Part 2
• If time stopped everywhere for a trillion years,
  then continued, how would we know?
• We would be stopped all that time, and then
  only when it continued would we continue
  perceiving, after time had stopped
• If time accelerated, we wouldn’t know either
  Different Rates of Time – Part 3
• It’s like a computer simulation for the
  simulated.
• To the things inside, the rate of processing
  things is the same, even though on the
  outside we see it changing
                   A Disclaimer
• Disclaimer time.
• I don’t know all of the details on how they research
  time.
• Perhaps this is already known, and disproved because
  of other things I had not heard of
• It’s possible this is ridiculous, and I know it.
• It’s possible that it does occur at different rates
  throughout the universe, but it’s also possible it’s the
  same
• It’s only a hypothesis at this time
• Any proof for this or against this I’m open to hearing
                     Summary
• Time seems slower because the reactions are
  slower, but that doesn’t make time slower
    – Just the reactions don’t occur at the same speed
•   Faster objects have slower reactions
•   Time travel, as we understood it, is impossible
•   Time is an illusion with a purpose
•   We can still use time in our lives, it’s just
    understanding the measurement of it needs
    work
