    time is a straight line. the circle is only for the easing of the incomprehending mind

      Time is no line. It just exists together with space. “Past” is a point of time we saved in memory, “future” what we imagine. Physically, there’s only “present”.

              Still not getting what you mean. From what i understand, what i said doesn’t exclude time being warped. Think of space time changing density with energy-level (mass, heat), to make sense of it.

                since time at its most basic is merely mans attempt to tame chaos, man has full control over his own perceptions regardless of “reality”

                  It’s both. A physical size with effets in real-life-applications and human perception. That’s why it’s so hard to make sense of.
