Or could it just be something created by humans that's imaginary?

Yes, time is real. Now, how we calculate it is completely made by humans.

Well there is change. If time didn't exist, change wouldn't be able to happen.

Time seems relative to how old you are. If you are a young child, time seems to be much slower and an hour is a long time. When you get older, the time seems to go much faster.

Do you think time is real?


I don't know, only time will tell.

Sorry, didn't have time to think of a more clever answer. Maybe next time.

How do we know for sure time is real?


The past has already happened, and at one time, the past was the present. The present will one time be the past, and the future, which currently has yet to be, will then be the present.

All this combined should prove that time itself is real, even if how we measure it is indeed made up by humans.

Is time real? Is the Pope catholic? Is the sky blue?

To be honest, I think that time is sort of like a postulate in geometry. You can't prove it, but you can't disprove it.

It is as real as a foot in length. Being a measurement, that is pretty much all it is.

No... Everything that ever and will ever happen has/will happen in the next half a second. >.< Obviously sarcasm.

yes

Things like the wind blowing clearly would happen evn if we were not here and would need time to happen in so time must exist. The measurements are just our ideas of time though.

People don't seem to understand, there is time, and there is the space time continuum. Time is an invention by human which is based off the position of the sun. The space time continuum is what scientist call the 4th dimension. We didn't invent the 4th dimension, we just coined it.

Time is molecular and submolecular motion and reactions. We can influence how fast those go, but I really doubt there actually is a time axis that we could move along.
