  1. No,

    In fact it's quite the contrary--we may  have been born trillions of

    time-frames ago, but  there are  sets  of   "events"  which suggest

    a  causal  chain  of events which is very complex and  we're the

    minds which have tuned-in to  that series of events, but  they're

    all separated by random durations.  I think  what I'm describing

    is sort of like  the way computer data drives work, and email.

    Packets of  data that "go together"  are found and strung

    together to recreate  what they're supposed to be, but in

    this case our minds are a   creation-of-matter which just happens

    to  be  attracted to  the idea  that  something  causes something

    else and results in another thing and  so-on--so we winnow

    all the instants at which  some sort of oscillating system which

    goes back and forth from "virtual particles" to  actual particles

    in unison to form "instants" or maybe a better term would be

    "instances".  Likely  there have  been  all different numbers

    of instances between the ones that seem to "go together" logically

    to form   what we've all just experienced.

    It's why when  things are going bad time seems to "drag"--you're

    losing interest and starting to perceive  true reality--vast spans

    of "time" or "ticks"--if things get too intense you'll  actually

    experience slo-mo.  I did a couple of times in open vehicle

    wrecks.

    And the one time I actually saw the scene from  a vantage

    point  above the seemingly actual series of events.  Sometimes

    we get lucky like that.  

    That's my story and I'm  sticking to it.  There's no real reason to

    think  that this moment and the "next" are really contiguous.

    Prove THAT  false,   @$$whole!


  2. I can't prove you wrong but I would bet everything I have that you don't believe it yourself.

  3. i buy it just as much as I buy the fact that i was born on my supposed birthday

  4. It can't be .... I've been sitting here for twenty minutes and that's not a memory. It's a continuation of time that started for me over fifty-three years ago.

    That's a h**l of a lot more time than ten minutes now isn't it?

  5. If we were ALL born 10 minutes ago, who invented all the stuff that we use now we have been born?

    Hmm???

    Think about it.

  6. Wow. You have too much time on your hands to come up with questions like this! (Or, I have too much to be answering you! lol...)

    Anyways, I've never heard this theory, and I KNOW I've been around for 30+ years. - I have the scars to prove it!  

  7. ask me in about an hour.  

  8. I do. I'm only 10 minutes old.

    Now I'm 11 minutes old so I guess I don't after all.

  9. god my mums tuppeny bit must be real sore come to that was wondering why i felt chaffed to lol.

  10. It's completely true

  11. you  type well for a 10 minute old kid

  12. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omphalos_(t...

  13. Buddhist teachings suggest that we are all born every moment, that past and future are merely conventions that our minds use so we imagine that we have a relative position in the world.  This idea is called "Arising".

    Try bending your brain around that one!

  14. 11 minutes ago I watched my self in a mirror and im watching myslef right now, still the same face.


  15. What about photographs with dates on them.
