the archilles and turle and all the TIME related stuff is (age old) propaganda.
consider a really stupid society (two tousand or more years ago). how to make them work and not go hitting woman on the head and dragging them to their cave (and getting the girl for yourself)?
invent a paradox, so to speak a program that runs on gray matter (sic). if you get them to think about this in a language (say greek) it will compile and run!!!
now you get all this user time, because the user/slave doesn't trust his own instict but a program.
we do not speak any language when we are born. we have to learn it and then we can't forget it! (if we are confronted with it all the time.)
the beautiy is that the language itself doesn't not allow for a solution!
consider it same like the law we use today. it origins are from the roman (i just believe this. david hume would have me on a plater!)
same applies to language. it's an invention and the syntax/grammer/etc. has stayed the same because our society is still the same. humans have yet to undergo a revolution to percive time differently/correctly.(?)
also: time is the same for everybody. our heart goes around 55-80 bps (beats per second). we percieve it the same.
all this said, why are we bother about these paradoxes?
do we ACTUALLY believe we can miss something? did nature construct us STUPID?
i don't (don't want to) believe so. we are acctually very beautiful creatures and this (the form; just think about a hand!) gives me strength to believe it is correct.
like one philosopher said "language is a game" (Wittgenstein).
what acctually botherrs me more is the origin of life. i believe it started in the ocean at very deep depths. like the canyon around the philipin islands. the pressure at 11 km below seasurface should be very interesting. :)
i was just imagining that at these depths water must feel very newtonian :) so to speak SOLID. for molecules this might be interesting.
it's not frozen (?) and still liquid. dark and very little/no radiation -adding- what happens when a neutrino decaise their?
it is difficult to relais (communicat) to someone how i percieve the world in a language that has certain attributs ;)
the eskimos have 10 (more?) words (not attributs)
for snow. its seems we IMPHESIZE on what helps us survive ...
maybe it's the "i don't want to die" that makes these physicists/philosopher think so much about TIME.
maybe their LIBIDO (Freud) is abit over a healty limit :)
more beer! less talk! more games!
