Craig,
<I don't see the past as a "human mental concept". The concept of the past
might be a human mental concept, but not the past <itself. Nor do I see the
past as existing. Whatever existed in the past might not exist now.
Isn't the above contradictory? You don't see the past as existing, but the
"past itself" (implying existence) is not a concept?
<I don't see this as one of my premises. Some aspects of time might be
independent of man ("Time and tide wait for no man"); <some aspects might
not be. We know in what way time is independent of man in the same way we
know in what way it isn't.
Again, contradictory. We know time exists with man, we do not know what
exists without man. Knowing implies man.
<I don't think time has been put anywhere by anybody.
Maybe you should think about where time came from.
<Time is what is measured by clocks. But this isn't a definition or
analysis of "time". Possibly time cannot be analyzed as <something simpler
(i.e., possibly "time" cannot be defined.)
What time is it, in the center of the universe? Is time measured in GMT,
CST, MST, PST or "dog years" there? Our clocks measure the rotation of earth
in our solar system, "time" is the mental concept associated our solar
system measurement, there is only now.
