@layman,

But what time actually is is a matter of ongoing debate among philosophers and scientists.
The only thing relativists are doing is perpetuate their fantasy in order to keep Einstein's image as a genius. It's a kind of pride, something I have I noticed it in you as well.
Who wants to recognize that all their own studies and life expended on relativity are nothing but crap to the square, right?
Besides, there is a big machine making excellent profit selling mythology (theories of relativity) as if it was science.
Quote:Time is an abstact concept, not a concrete thing. Some people claim that relativity says that "time slows down." But what slows down is actually clocks, and, more generally, recurring physical processes, in the concrete sense.
What a dump!
Read any book on relativity, their claim is that "time dilates". Lol.
How in the world, a concrete concept recognized by you will
dilate because the speed of objects?
I'm going direct with you,
you won't come here and paint a scenario of sweet words and flowers. No. That is unacceptable.
You see,
when you apply the relativistic term "dilatation of time", then according to your personal interpretation, what you are saying is that clocks dilate because causes as speed and gravity.
Can't you see how ridiculous is your position?
I will explain you what happens with clocks in airplanes and in spacecrafts:
The clocks MALFUNCTION.
Atomic clocks are very sensitive, as
Quehoniaomath reminded it very well,
L. Essen, the inventor of the atomic clock laughed of relativists because their experiments on atomic clocks. He stated that
Einstein with his thought experiments and his followers were wrong and are making foolish to others and to themselves. Look, this is the inventor of the atomic clock here, he knew better than anyone about his invention. OK?
When you move the atomic clock to an environment other than the one where it has been calibrated, the atomic clock will malfunction.
It has nothing to do with dilatation of time,the clock itself., works in base of an atom (Cesium) sending signals because its vibration frequency, and these signals are received by a receptor that will count 9,192,631,770 vibrations and make a click indicating one second. This is how the atomic clock works.
When this clock is exposed to acceleration, the internal sending of signals will suffer a kind of interference. When the atomic clock is exposed to less gravity, the atom of Cesium vibrations change to a different rate.
It is a FACT that everything is affected in outer space. Our bodies, our machines, properties of metals, everything behaves different in outer space, and atomic clocks are not the exception.
All this is a natural physical reaction, nothing to do with the fantasy of a dilatation of time.
Then, you finally got it, time doesn't dilate, the clock suffers of malfunction.
Quote:To the extent that you want to employ a positivistic philosophy and say "time is only what a clock measures" (which Einstien, under the influence of Ernst Mach, did say, early in his career), then, in that sense, you can say "time" slows down.
Please stop defending that poor idiot of Einstein.
Look, Einstein thought that clocks actually "detect a passage of time". For this reason he stated that clocks can measure it.
Einstein thought of time as something objective that can be manipulated by the speed of objects and the gravity of bodies.
He even invented a "fabric of the universe" including time as part of such a universal cloth... ha ha ha...
In other words, to the superfluous idea that time actually flows, he added that time can also be "flexible".
From here, thanks to his stupidity, lots of his followers have been living in a world of fantasies for more than a century.
Sadly, reading your messages, one can observe that you can be count as another follower of poor idiot Einstein.
