But let me ask you something. I am going to assume that time exists just for the purpose of this question. If all of the matter in the universe stopped moving, and froze, would time still be progressing? If everything is frozen, then it would be just the same as if time had stopped.
We also have created the measurement called "time" because we physically and mentally posess memories. We remember something that happened a while ago, and obviously it is not happening right now, so therefore there must have been some presence or facility if you will that fills up the gap in between those two actions, so we think. But my question is, what if there is no such thing as time? I think that there is movement, and there is animal memory, but there is no ever-present force that cannot be altered, called time. Think of it, every single human being that has ever lived is still residing right here on Earth, but the vast majority of all the people who lived in the past are all dust in the wind now. Their molecules are still here floating around somewhere, no matter has been created or destroyed ever since the Universe came into existence, whether by Intelligent Design or not, the fact remains.
