🛡️ Debate What is the very nature of Time?

I believe Einstein said it best. Einstein referred to time as being part of a fabric of the space-time continuum. When he referred to it as a fabric, he described it that way because space-time can be warped and manipulated. If you can travel through time, you can travel through space too as the 2 are interlinked. This brings me to an idea that few bring up. Everyone likes to talk about the possibility of time travel, but nobody talks about space travel. People want to travel to the future to see what things are like, or maybe they want to visit the past. I think it would be cool to travel to NYC in an instant and not deal with airplanes. In fact, that's probably what I'd do. As much as I'd like to see the Gettysburg address, I'm equally curious to travel to places I've never been, like Bali, or the Maldives, and not in the future, but in 2020.

two times exist. at once. time space , of this physical and other physical universes, and time-space for the soul in the non physical universes. the time space of the physical, does not allow for a pause upon one moment of time, the squares of space time , is like that on a chess board or game board. each movement within the physical, is a space on times plate. while in spirit, there is a whole other dimension of space, where time is no part of. allowing the soul to move anywhere among that space, at no measure of time. though i could be wrong about everything, this is just my answer at the moment of this time. lol peace :)

nothing can move itself therefore time is what allows things to move, since time is no a tangible object in of itself but something that gives the objects some of its properties. Objects take up space and have mass, yet those objects are one thing rather then another because of a cause, the laws of separate from the objects themselves as anything that has mass is cannot cause itself therefore it is something without mass therefore is not an object. dont completely understand it, but
 
You can think of time as a direction. That covers why it's not a tangible object.

In the strictest sense of the term, time IS a direction. It's just another dimension in a math problem. All that means is it's a 4th variable - x, y, z, and t. The t axis is perpendicular to the other three.
No more of a mystery than the other three directions, it's just that we can't see in the t direction, just exactly like Charlie Brown can't see you reading his comic.
