The past contains the seeds of future growth.

Ever do any gardening?
So, you were never in your mother's future? The doctor never told her that she is going to have a baby (future tense)?

It is not an analogy bunky, it is an actual examople. It makes mucho sense . You are not paying attention as usual.

Do me a favor and learn to quote others clearly without screwing up what the say. Learn to use the ['quote'] tag in the beginning of their quote and the ['/quote'] tag at the end. You areas clueless with HTML as the passage of time.

Everything about a series of events taking place sequentially or a pool shot is evidence for which way time unfolds. Before, during and after. Again the pool shot IS NOT AN ANALOGY for time . It is an example oh pompous one

Irrelevant. What is important is HOW biological organisms give birth, grow, mature and die.

That is the direction time unfolds. As does all events with a beginning.

First of all, Time isn't physical, therefore, not biological. Secondly, you are confusing events for Time! Events are NOT Time. Events do not = Time. Events occur IN Time.

Time is the universal environment in which we all live, breathe, talk and walk. We are surrounded by Time, just as fish are surrounded by their environment of water. When there is an event in the ocean, the ocean doesn't become the event. When a big fish attacks a smaller fish for its breakfast, the attack is an event in the ocean -- not the ocean itself. Likewise, all events in this world happen IN Time but are not Time itself. Time is only the universal environment of seemingly endless successive moments in which all events occur.

Furthermore, events have their own unique causes, just as Time itself has its unique cause.

???? Sorry, don't speak boxcarian.

Time for me to leave this backwards discussion. I will not coddle you and your obsessions with time anymore. Gave you another chance, came up bonkers again

Time for me to leave

Not one shred of evidence to bolster your theories.
I have posted many lines of proof in support of my standard perception of Time on the human scale

Please no more about Time ever, until you have evidence that will stand up to rational scrutiny. No faith based explanations or silly word games

Ever!

The evidence is there for all to see, including the evidence of your inability to distinguish between chronological and logical. I have explained it to you but I can't make you understand it.

Couldn't decide between 8 sleepings or 50.
Settled on 8 to be concise

In either case any number would still symbolize your perpetual state of mind even when you think you're awake.

You're the inmate and are so blind to FACTS. In fact, I was wrong earlier when I said that your time arrow of the Past flowing through the Present into the Fuure would result in "double-dipping" into time. It actually would result into TRIPLE-dipping. Here's how: You have USED time from Past passing through the Present to be USED again and then passing into the Future to be used a third time. In your insane time arrow scheme Time never ceases to be used. We're somehow always using it whether it be in Past, Present or Future.

Yet, anyone with two live brain cells that can produce a charge when rubbed together knows that Time can only be used in the Present. All time is consumed only in the Present. This proves beyond any shadow of a doubt that my flow of time is logically sound! For I have unused, new Time flowing from the Future into the Present to be consumed and then immediately into the Used Time Vault of the Past to never be used again.

Enjoy your stay in the loony bin...

How foolish of me thinking there was not a shred of evidence
for your backwards phlogiston Tine theory.

Of course, you're sleeping. You don't dare wake up to face the stark reality of the total untenability of your absurd "arrow of time" theory which you must have found by doing a deep dumpster dive. No wonder your dumb theory has such a rotten stench to it. Even the inmates in a real asylum know that time can only be consumed once and always, always, always in the Present only.

Have a nice snooze.
