” But time is necessary for experience. Mathematics is not.”

Time helps only to interpret experience, as does mathematics. Both are abstractions, unless you want to consider Time as having some physical attribute. I would be willing to discuss it as a dimension of experience but not as a fourth dimension as it stands alone as a constant.

” It is a matter of using absurd statements to present an argument. You said that:

"We make an infinite number of movement events through an infinite number of moments in time to reach the corner."


Huh, which is it?

I averred that moments were not eternal. I suggest to you that the moment of your birth is not the same moment as the moment of your death.

Is it absurd to separate time into parts or is it necessary to do so? Make up your mind.
