Axiom: Time is a succession of events (a logic device created by man)
Axiom: Events are absolute
I can't believe that time is not absolute. Time is a succession of
absolute events. For example, if one day you walk in your office and
find the light bulb burnt out, and the day before the light bulb was
burning bright, then the event of the light bulb expiring occurred
without it's being related to you or I, it just occurred - an event.
So to say that the moment the light bulb expired was different to you
and I would be to assume that the event was not absolute - i.e. out of
sync with itself. The argument that the event appeared to occur at
different times depending on if, say, I were travelling at close to the
speed of light and you were not would mean that in our own 'personal'
time they occurred differently and were thus non-absolute. I believe
that perhaps relativities assumption that all time is relative to the
individual is actually a change in the scale used to measure time. I
think that because an event such as a super nova for example probably
occurred at some time in the universe and spreads it's effect
throughout the universe evenly - despite the speed that other suns,
galaxies etc. may be moving relative to it.
