ONE THOUGHT EXPERIMENT: TIME IS A 3D TEMPORAL SYSTEM: BRIDGING SCIENCE, RELIGION, AND SOCIETY

God created Time and change as a quantum system. He created a temporal system that flows in quanta of six instants pausing at every seventh instant and flowing in a circular orbit from and away a reference point(s) to create a quantum system of temporal sequences of Time Values. To an observer, the Time Values are forward moving from the distant reference point(s). A quantum of six continuous instants represents a clock. The seventh instant represents an Anti-Clock. Each clock has a life cycle, rate of change, and Time Value. So is the Anti-Clock. The relationship between a Clock, its twin Anti-Clock, and its unique Time Value is fundamental: it is not derived from any relationship. So is the relationship between Time Values and Rates of change such as rate of return. The determinants of these Time Values are Clocks and Anti-Clocks. For every clock there is one anti-clock. For every clock and anti-clock there is a Time Value. Time is therefore a quantum system of Clocks and Anti-Clocks The Act of Creation is about Time and Change. Time and Change are Devine concepts. So are other established knowledge elements and constants such as the mathematical symbol “π”: it was spiritually entangled at two different occasions into the thought processes of two individuals working for Moses and King Salomon, respectively, to create circular items for the “Mishkan” in the desert following the Israelites exodus from Egypt, and long afterwards, to build the first Jewish Temple in Jerusalem. Time and Change are God’s primary and ultimate glory. The usefulness of the three dimensional definition of time cannot be overstated. It is limited by the imagination of the user. In religion, one of the major contributions is the elimination of the Hebrew Leap Year: by counting the head of every Hebrew month TWICE, excluding the head of the year, the number of days in a year is 365, whether the length of the year is based on the moon or the sun. Due to recent advances in the sciences, we will expand the usefulness of the 3D dimensional system of Time to the interpretations of discoveries of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO). LIGO’s interpretations are based on a uni-dimensional definition of time. Accordingly, time is a descriptive dimension and space is described in three dimensions. In 3D definition of Time, Space, black holes, vacuum, zero, and infinity are a point in Time and Time is prescriptive. In 3D, the coordinate system is universal in which change, any change, has duration for making a difference, relative to a well-defined initial state “f (i, t)”, has a rate of change “i”, life cycle “t”, and Time Value “T”, and a “0”, where “0” is both, the traditional anchor in the sequence of whole numbers 0, 1, 2,3… and a concept of “indifference,” meaning change that does not make a difference relative to the initial state. Each coordinate is, therefore, representable as a clock or anti-clock (defined). In this universal coordinate system, the function “f (i, t)” is one of three dimensions and means “TIMING for making a positive difference”. It is not so in a uni-dimensional definition of time. In uni-dimensional definition of time, massive bodies warp space-time, whereas in a 3D system of Time, Time wraps such objects, whether the objects are clocks or anti-clocks. Other differences are discussed and illustrated in this monograph to highlight the differences in interpretation, using the very illustrations posted in LIGO’s website. Scientists should not bebe treating their observations as wooden absolute because of the uncertainty in their interpretations. Using the 3D definition of Time, the author introduces CLOCKING as holistic medical intervention in which circadian clock with the maximum Time Value is arranged to create a switching circuit in parallel with diseased circadian clock having inferior Time Value until the outcome of this interaction is satisfied.
