Time is relative though. (admittedly for these purposes it makes little difference, but I presume the question of age should be assumed to be from your reference frame, how many revolutions of the sun (Sol) around Earth have you been alive for.
- Digory 8y agoOf course, it's from society's reference, not your own, that you know when you were born, and how many revolutions have happened since then. And observing revolutions feels like an abstraction to most people, kind of like "seeing" chromosomes. Most people see effects of revolutions (seasons).
- jonhohle 8y agoSure, time is relative. It’s also how we calculate standard measures (the distance light travels over some interval). So if time is relative, so is length.
- hndamien 8y agoCorrect. That gives me another idea of something I would like changed... for my dating prospects...
