The Illusion of Time (The nature of a \'Creator\')

Our illusion of time as an actual object comes from our ability as humans to analyze recorded information and infer from it to future events. It seems deceptively tangible--like water as it flows through our fingers as we reach into the water. We can look upstream and see water, we can trace its movement through our fingers, and can watch it flow away from us. -If time is an illusion and I suspect this could be true, then everything else is also an illusion, eg intelligence, life, free will, consciousness. For example if time is an illusion, then I don't see how concepts like velocity, acceleration and energy are not also illusions.-But beware of the word "illusion" - it does not mean delusion. It just means something is not what it seems - it does not mean that something does not exist.
