A Clock Does Not Determine Time:

A clock does not determine time; it merely represents cosmic time in a physical manifestation. While relativity defines time as what a clock reads, a universal perspective suggests that time emerges from existential events—I describe this as "existential events invoke time."

Time is cosmic in nature. Cosmic time is fundamentally defined as the continuous, irreversible progression of existence and events—from the past, through the present, into the future—advancing independently of measurement devices. It is not bound by the constraints of relativistic interpretations.

I maintain that the classical understanding of time is superior to the flawed relativistic concept. Time itself does not dilate; rather, discrepancies in clock measurements arise due to external influences.

Furthermore, space possesses no intrinsic physical properties—there is no scientific basis for asserting otherwise unless guided by bias or preconceived notions. Space consists of the extensions of length, height, and depth, which are abstract mathematical constructs. Special relativity, by stripping time of its independence, redefines it within its own framework, making relativistic time a constrained derivative rather than a natural, universal progression. This interpretation is inconsistent with other disciplines of physical science.

That is all for now.
