I have to agree, as I don't belive time to exist, though I do belive space are filled with tiny bits of various particles.

AND thats where time fails

time is based on the measure of " tiny bits of various particles "

not on time , in and of its self , but on the particles movements

hence speed

yes

Does "volume" exist?


yes

I believe time to be a measurement of the environment and as such is quantifiable.


time is the measurement of the objects movement within a said enviroment

it is the objects movements that dictates any said measurement of these or those movements

can time change movement in and of its self of any object?

and does space have substance in the absence of plasma and/or matter ?

I say no to both questions

My good north, it isn't the question itself per se, but it is the sum of all other of your posts that has an eerily ring in this recent post, it's how you formulate the question which you answer youself.

However I bring nothing constuctive with my critisism and are admittedly trolling and flaming, I'm sorry I shouldn't have said anything.

@north,
time doesn't exist so how would it have substance ! time is invented by the human beings .
And the movement of big bang where light is spreading out by the energy of a powerful blow which started between non existence and existence , this has nothing to do with time . you cannot measure this movement with time .

@Richard Park,
Good question, RP. I don't know why it "bends", but I suspect its bending is not same as the bending of a "pliable object" in my hand. We just use the same word for a very different kind of phenonemon. But as Frank would remind me, I'm guessing.

@north,
Time is a dimensional vector pointing in the forward direction. It has no movement per say.
