Thanatos_M Sorry for this random post, but it was part of my response to something in the ED, which I've been hanging around a lot lately, and I just wanted to post it here 3nodding Quote: Reality, and by that word I mean both the physical and metaphysical world, is an integration of perhaps infinite levels of truth; for everything that is true, there will me many other things which will define the same thing as the first truth in a different way but still be true. On some of these levels of truth, it is quite easily acceptable that time is an illusion. For example, take a river. On one level of examination, the river is billions and billions and billions of water molecules all individual and flowing in the same direction, and the water at one point on the river is invariably a different group of molecules than that which was there at another time. On another level of truth, the river is a single entity which is always, regardless of time, at its beginning and its end, and also in between. Because the river is always at its end, beginning, and in between, we could quite logically conclude that time doesn't exist and that the river exists at all these places in time at once. Now apply these same varying levels of truth to the world and you'll probably get quite a mind blowing picture. >< Dammit! My mind just freaked out on me again, like that time that I tried to think of how big the universe actually is. Not cool!

I pissed in that river, so, by all rights... my piss is part of everything there is and ever will be. Conclusion: I am God.

That's a silly post. Matter is definite, and thusly the mass of all things is also definite. Just as matter cannot be lost the mass cannot be lost. It's a simple matter that everything is constantly being used, and is changing, following it's cycle.
Water starts, it moves, and then it stops, or it forms something else. The rive begins on a mountain, formed by rain or another source. It then travels, and then joins with another or ends at a great body of water such as an ocean or a lake.
That has very little, if not nothing, to do with time. Time is a distance measurement. How far it takes something to move for an event to happen. Obviously the river is going to be in varying stages at different points in 'time', but that's of no consequence. The effect cannot be reversed unless equal energy is applied to reverse the action.
That energy can't come from no where, so reasonably it would come from the present, or the future. You can't take the energy of what happened and reapply it to reverse the act because it has already moved on and been applied. In theory you could deny a future event, but the future holds only the potential for energy and actually none in it.
Basically what I'm saying is that your length doesn't foretell where you are in time. All it describes is the amount of time it would take for the effect to become widefelt. The river will require a certain amount of time for each bit of it to feel the reprecussions of a stone dropped at it's begginning.
Like I said, it's a silly post.
