[QUOTE="JackStagger, post: 183522, member: 11397"] Mathematically speaking, absolute change is equal to absolute zero change. That is to say with time everything is equal to nothing. This is in an infinite sense, where change is not in fact change because [I]everything[/I] is changing constantly. To not change would be the change in that situation. To not have any changes ever would be equivalent to all changes taking place simultaneously forever. Time is the rate of changes, not the changes themselves, and thus is absolute at each extreme of nothingness and everything. It's of mathematical and philosophical utility to look at it this way because in reality we can no more infinitely stop anything any more than we can make anything infinitely change. Science has failed to observe a single thing to be infinite outside of mathematics, where it works as a sort of gauge theory mechanism like zero. If we could stop time in a laboratory, it would not be truely still-time. It would only be still-time within our forward moving time, that is to say it's a still-time that has a beginning and an end. True still-time would simply not exist on this plane. It's mathematically poetic but not really empirical, because in real life there is nothing that says we cannot create a still-time state, but absolute still-time is simply incompatible with our dimension and would be of no use to us in any laboratory sense whatsoever.
