Time is the comparison of motions -- nothing more.No, I disagree. Time is a property of matter and passes inversely
proportional to the state of motion of discrete objects.
Motion is a property of matter, not time.
necessarily only matter, it cannot be claimed that motion is unique to
matter. Time, however, is claimed to be unique to visible matter.
Accepting that motion is a property of matter does not preclude the
fact that time is also a property of matter.
Between events, yes, but it is more than that. Entropy exists only
Time is simply a mathematical
concept used to compare the aggregate change in the state of the
universe between two events.
where time exists, and time exists only where time passes. The fact of
the passage of time refutes the metaphysical claim that time does not
exist.
"Units of motion"? Ya mean like seconds, hours, days, etc.? Without
Actually, it's a useless layer of
complexity whereas units of motion, which is an actual physical property
of matter, could suffice quite nicely in it's place.
those time measurements, explaining the passage of it would be far more
complex than any babelfish could ever explain.
No. I disagree.
IOW, we use units of length to compare lengths, and units of mass to
compare mass. We really should use units of motion to compare motions.
