Posting this here so I remember it later. No need to respond.

Skimming through... Yeah, not even close. Happenstance is not a miracle. I mock you because it WAS NOT a miracle, yet you've deluded yourself into thinking it was. Alternately, you forgot to turn the dryer on, and then came back thinking you had turned the dryer on, and found that you...

Irrelevant. Measurement does not happen without a thinking mind present. It is the assigning of meaning to a physical space (space, by the way, ALSO doesn't exist, ontologically speaking, and I believe @Clete covered this either here in this thread or perhaps elsewhere...) According to...

Measurement does not happen outside a thinking mind, Nikolai. And the measurement of the distance between two events (time) is just an idea, a concept (which also cannot exist outside of an thinking mind), a convention of language (which, again, also cannot exist outside of a thinking mind)...

The difference is which happened first, second, third, ... nth, nth+1, nth +2, etc. Correct. Frequency measures how many times something happens within a certain known period. I never said it was. A yardstick measures the distance between two points. Time measures the distance between...

Cesium atoms, that "new type of atomic clock" (what you linked to above), and planets orbiting around stars (Derf's example) are clocks. This is what I'm talking about when I say you have it backwards. Frequency is "time." Frequency is the measure of the distance between two events. Time...

You have it backwards, hence the confusion. It's not that those things do not have meaning if time does not exist... It's that those things GIVE meaning. Clocks MEASURE time. They are not "time itself." The planets rotating, orbiting around a star, cesium atoms vibrating, clocks ticking, they...

It's an older meme, sir, but it checks out.
