Time FTL

They say nothing can go faster than the speed of light but they also say space is expanding faster than the speed of light wouldn’t that mean time is also going faster than the speed of light because of the space time continuum? If space has a speed then time must also have the same speed! How would that affect us and the universe? They say FTL would cause time to go backwards. Are we in some kind of space time warp anomaly?
 
Yeah, I remember reading somewhere that it's believe the universe is expanding faster than light itself. It's confusing.

Should we simply focus on the fact that speed is relative? If EVERYTHING is moving super fast, is anything moving at all? Would it help explain how the universe works?

I would say that this suggests TIME is relative no matter how fast you are going even if it is faster than the speed of light! It also suggests that things can travel faster than the speed of light in certain circumstances, and we need to figure out how that affects time. Maybe it’s a warping of space-time.

You claim to understand time and dimensionality and you're asking questions like this...
Guess those 1s and 0s of yours aren't that helpful here huh...

If you have nothing nice to say then maybe you shouldn’t say anything at all. I don’t claim to understand time and dimensionality. You’re the one claiming that I claim to understand time and dimensionality. I’m here to debate in healthy thoughtful discussions so that we can understand the universe better and maybe discover or invent something new and interesting, perhaps time travel. Those 1’s and 0’s was just a reference to a point I was making about how digits repeat after 10 just like how the 1’s and 0’s of the binary code repeat, that’s all!

Numbers repeat after 10 because, with 10, you repeat the numbers all over again. There is nothing SUPER about it.
