Einstein and Time (Humans)

Matt and I are once more locking horns over his insistence that time is not real.
> 
> Please tell us your criteria for judging what is and is not real.-I understand his point. Time is a human invention. It is only real within that invention. Stop the clocks and we still go from one moment in time and reality to another. Time is our measurement of sequestial events, based on division of the rotation of the Earth and its trip around the sun. The events exist, the sequence exists. That is real.
