I'm going to preface that I didn't read the other thread, because I'm on break at work, but I got sucked into this thread and had to respond.

I've heard several people mention time with reference to change.

What happens if we view this with the lense of quantum physics (or at least my limited understanding of it). So if everything is a probability distribution until it is observed, what does that mean? If one thing can be in two places, what does that mean? To me it means that you can't possibly view time as a difference in change because at any given period in time, objects could flash out of existance or wind up in a completely different place without travelling the distance between them.

Everything is a probability distribution, and at any period in time the world could be configured into an infinitely large array of possibilities. I feel that the current state of the universe is the collective oberservations/creations of all our splinters of consciousness. ie if your were the only consciousness participating in this universe that you could change anything instantly, but if you were part of many other consciousnesses than you would all be affecting the state of the universe thus contributing to the constancy (well fluid transitioning) that we all notice. I feel that somehow, I can grow in my consciousness. This would mean increasing the frequency of my consciousness and probably equivalently the energy involved. If this were to approach godliness than that would mean both the frequency and the energy contained in that wave would approach infinity. I feel like this would mean that time is more a change in consciousness than a change in state. Although, a change in consciousness very well would result in a change in physical state as well.

The more I think about it everybody is right.

The big questions I have are:

What does a thought look like in wave form?
How do they combine to produce my individual splinter of consciousness?
How is matter created from consciousness?

The farther I think I get the more questions I come across.
