A Theory of Time VS B Theory of Time

305 views

Everytime I try to read an explanation of both I don’t really understand the difference. Saying “this happened in the past” and “this happened before that” is just using different words to describe the exact same thing to me. I guess I’m also not understanding the implications of this distinction.

You can think of time like we classically think of it. Where I experience a past, present, and future. These may be convenient assumptions our mind makes to help understand reality.

Alternatively, the speed of causality in the universe is exactly the speed that light moves. Consequently, light does not experience time. Its’ entire existence happens all at the same time. So with that thinking, the external relative ‘time’ we experience may in fact be a derivative of our speed.
