Exploring the theory that time does not exist

I've heard this argument many times over the years. Interestingly enough, it almost sounds a little like the 'Flat-Earth theory', or the absurd notion that humanity never sat foot on the moon! Time is just a basic, or can be a complicated measurement of primarily a cyclic-event. Such as the measurement of a day. We know that the time elapses because our cellular mitochondria cyclically creates replacement cells throughout the day-that is the process of time that we are all atunned to through our biological-clocks and circadian rhthyms.

If there was no time, how would our bodies know when to wake itself up among the other things, through its 24-hour cycle. The theorem that time is just an artificial measurement with no validity has no scientific basis in reality. Additionally, certain cellular processes have been measured at precise times. Even the half-life of nuclear isotopes have been precisely measured-the same isotopes that are used to measure exact time.

Time is a measurement and standard that we all live by, govern our lives by, and how we calculate the universal constant by. From its most basic to most complex measurements, it exists...not just as an artificial measurement on an event, but a real measurement of an actual causality, part of special relativity. This stipulates that cause and effect is separated by a timelike interval. Time is the universal measurement of cyclical and non-cyclical measurements. If there was no time, all that we would know and hold dear would disintegrate. Days might seem to last forever; the normal cycles of life would collapse. People and events could seemingly last forever.

The measurement of time is an accurate representation of our casual reality. Without time, people would be born, seemingly without ever being conceived, because all events would seem to be juxtaposed, or terribly out of synch, like some dream event. After all, they say dreams seem to last forever, even though they may only last less then thirty seconds. Dreams seem to be out of our own space-time continuum, seemingly a reflection of a world without time. Therefore, it offers some proof that time does exist, for everything in a non-dream world is ordered to the time and space contiuumn.

Our biological clock governs all our life processes. It helps put the body into circadian sleep rhythyms, to eat at certain times, to rest...even to die when a certain age has been reached, from whatever physical event causes it from trauma to disease, ordered in the time
