Does time really exsist as a "thing"? Or is it just something manmade used for better organization?
Based on time, are there other dimensions of time that are different from our own reality? Basically, for every decision we make in our lives, we are meant to go down one path in a specific dimension. But, what if every OTHER decision that we COULD'VE made creates another dimension of time that leads down the path of the decision we could've made? In otherwords, in another dimension I could be a rich multi-billion dollar stock holder in a mansion with a cool car, and in another I could be out on the streets in a box.
There are several TV shows I've seen that have this idea (which is where I got this question from); Star Trek and Stargate SG-1 both have episodes that rea;ate with this different dimension therory. Is it just a manipulation of time? Or is there another means to it?
Pushing into that also starts a debate of time travel: At first I believed that time travel into the future, but not to the past, was possible, but now I don't. I do not believe that speed is a factor in which time can be manipulated. If one were to travel above 186,000 miles a second, how could that change time? (BTW, I just thought: Wasn't there an expirament done where two seperate clocks, both identical in time and type, were used in a shuttle flight to test this? NASA had one clock, and the shuttle had another. The shuttle flew at very high speeds, and when it landed, the two clock's times were compared... though I don't remember the outcome... ever hear of this?)
