What everyday things would happen in real life if time just “stopped”?
Would my watch stop working? Would I stop aging? Would I have the day off from work? Or would I be frozen in some sort of metaphysical state until it started again?
Functionally, different moments in time represent alternate distributions of matter and energy in space (obviously matter and energy are the same thing, and maybe space, too).
If time stops, nothing happens. Forever, which would be a long time since nothing would be happening.
No, nothing would happen, because time is the measurement of things happening. If things are happening then time is moving. Time is a dimension just like horizontal and vertical, and depth. Time doesn’t ‘move’ it doesn’t ‘stop’, bodies move through the various dimensions in relationship to one another, and we call this movement, ‘time’.
