Time does not exist

...so says, Carlo Rovelli, Physicist at the Institut Universitaire de France & University of the Mediterraneum and Author of the book, Quantum Gravity

I am convinced, but cannot prove, that time does not exist. I mean that I am convinced that there is a consistent way of thinking about nature, that makes no use of the notions of space and time at the fundamental level. And that this way of thinking will turn out to be the useful and convincing one.

Read the complete essay,written as part of the very fascinating series of answers to The Edge's 2005 Question to the world's leading thinkers and intellectuals: "What Do You Believe Is True Even Though You Cannot Prove It?"

Read it online or buy the book: 120 contributors & 60,000 words - it is a treasure-chest of fascinating thoughts and hypothesis... flights of imagination...theories, some believable (but unprovable, of course) and some really far-out there and in the realms of science fiction (today).

Fascinating stuff!
