I think this thread belongs in the metaphysical section.

Time is dependent on space. Space is dependent on time (and finite light speed which is the speed of time). The other can't exist without the other. Why? If there was no time, it would take zero "time" to go from place to place. You could not measure distances. So distances between places are distances between times. Distances between times are distances between places. Time and space are intertwined, different parts of the same. In fact, nothing (like this) could exist and function if everything wasn't exactly like it is. There is no this without that. They are the same but separate (at least as concepts and perceptions).

time does not exsist.
It is just the label for ppl to record the sequence that things happen. Sometimes, this sequence is messed up, but generally, it works well

Try telling that to your boss when you're late to work.

I think that, provided you have two or more dimensions and a certain relationship between them (function), change exists. The concept of change, itself, is not strictly dependent on the concept of time.

i don't think only humans experience time. I think that one might say the time is not real, it is an biological perception,

but what is present because no matter the smallest devision of a second you can make it is always immediately gone so really there isn't much of a present
