Prove that humans invented time? Cavemen didn't know if it was 6 P.M.

And then eventually people invented sun dials and such.

nice logic, BUT, time travel can exist (if we ever find how to do it), but as far as i know it would only be possible to go back in time, since the past has already happened... and unless the future is pre-determined, we cant travel to the future... this time travel stuff is very confusing, yet it is very worthy of discuss..

That just means humans invented a way of measuring time, of quantifing it.

Your argument is as inane as claiming distance doesn't exist, because humans invented ways of measuring it. Oh, wait. You already did.

Well here is alittle thing for you to get your head around. Maybe you don't exist. Maybe you are a form of energy that has managed to build itself a construct of life.

Time travel does exist. Just consume as much booze as possible and pass out. Time flies by that way, usually a day or two, and bam, you're in the future. And chemical flashbacks are just a fancy way of saying chemically induced backwards travel.

When you discuss time travel there are infinate possibilties and questions such as is there one solid timeline or trillions etc.

That's what I meant.

Time does exist. Timeis an indefinite continuous duration regarded as that in which events succeed one another. That does exist. Our measurements of time (Seconds, minutes, hours, etc) don't. If we got rid of these measurements or never had any to begin with, time will still go on.

You're getting confused here.. you are confusing the invention of the measurement of time with the invention of time itself, which we did not do.

The measurement of time was inevitable; a global society like the one we have made today is impossible to build and maintain properly without the measurement of time.

Time travel DOES exist. It's just a one way street, though.

Lets apply your logic to other things and see if it makes sense...

Length is a measurement humans invented to measure distance, therefore length does not exist. If Length doesn't exist, I guess its impossible to go anywhere.

Nope, doesn't make a lick of sense.

Maybe they have and theyre just laying low right now :o

Or maybe they can only travel as far back as when the first time machine was turned on.

i dont necessarily agree with that entire statement...but i do believe that since we are finite creatures we can only see things in terms of having a beginning and an end as is our life....so the idea of there never being a beginning and there never being an end is beyond our comprehension but even without a beginning or end events happen in a particular order....without time then a cup of milk would be full before we would even pour it

You might want to re-think your answer. You're making his point, standard measures exist because we all agree to accept them.

The measurements don't matter. It's the existance of distance that matters.

It doesn't matter whether we measure time by hours or sticks of incense or the position of the sun. What matters is the existance of Time in the first place.

No, he means that just because we measure something doesn't mean we invented what we are measuring.

If we hadn't measured distance, would distance exist? Of course it would. Same thing with time.

200 years ago we didn't know sub-atomic particles existed... and now we have string theory. Time travel can and will exist. Its just a matter of someone figuring it out.

Presumably, this means space and temperature do not exist either, right? Since those are measured by degrees defined by humans. Thus, you can instantly (esp since time doesn't exist) be anywhere in the universe and can't be burned by fire, since temperature is measured by humans. Look, units are defined by humans, but there is something being mneasured. Why do people have such a hard time with this?

It might be a bit difficult concept to wrap your head around but video games cannot exist. Video is an English word invented by human and Game is an English word invented by human as well. Before human invented language, there was no such words as "video" or "game." Therefore, there is no such thing as a video game.
