The Glitch- Chronon or Tachyon
Everything we call real is made of things that cannot be regarded as real.
I am talking about “TIME”.
Imagine there’s a big gap between two things: the way science talks about the basic rules that govern everything in the universe (like particles and forces), and the way we talk about human stuff like feelings, history, beauty, and hope.
Richard Feynman once said that both sides of this gap are important. He thought it was a mistake to only focus on one side and ignore the other. He compared it to standing at the end of a pier and only walking in one direction, hoping to understand everything that way.
In 1987, there was a special meeting where scientists and thinkers gathered to discuss these things. They saw connections between science and ideas about God and the universe. They noticed that the concept of the universe coming from nothing (like God creating from nothing) was similar to the Big Bang theory. And the idea that life keeps changing and growing (like evolution) was a bit like the idea of continuous creation.
Time is a big deal in all of this. In science, time is like a rule that decides how things happen. In history, time is what makes things change and develop, like how Earth and life have changed over a long, long time. Even when people talk about deep things like beauty and hope, time is a part of it.
In science, especially in tiny things like atoms, time is linked to stuff like how often things happen, how long…
