Remoting Future

Unread post by Anach » Sat Aug 11, 2007 4:07 am

In a linear conception of time, the future is the portion of the timeline that has yet to occur. We want to provide practical countdowns for special moments in space-time that still have not occurred... even if some of those moments already happened.

Only problem is that I dont believe that time is linear rather, our perception of time is linear.

The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of 'liberalism' they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.

I agree.

To its height, its depth, its broad extent,
A limitless love, without hatred or enmity."
