i’m writing a paper for systematics of christian philosophy about time. i’m interested if some people could respond to a few questions for me…

what is time like when you are taking a test you studied really really hard for, and you know it all?

what is time like when you are taking a test you know nothing about? (but should)

what is time like when you are just getting to know someone you find really interesting?

what is time like after a long hard working day?

where has all the time gone?

do chickens reveal anything about time to you?

some say time goes fast and some say slow, which would you say is more prevalant in your life?

why, if you dare, do you think time has these different aspects or feelings?

thanks to anyone who responds. and if you don’t respond, you’re going to um, uh, regret? it.

thanks from the banana republic.

Stanley Hauerwas doesn’t address the chicken issue, but he says that in the time we call “America”, it is a great hope that God has given us time to do our work and rest in the rewards of Christ’s victory over sin and death. If you’re interested or have the time (and according to Hauerwas, you do!), you should check out some of his theology.

what is time like when you are taking a test you studied really really hard for, and you know it all? exhilerating

what is time like when you are taking a test you know nothing about? (but should) excruciating

what is time like when you are just getting to know someone you find really interesting? trepidatious

what is time like after a long hard working day? relieving

where has all the time gone? probably into the same vortex all my money, lighters and pens disappear into

do chickens reveal anything about time to you? only when bundled into a post involving bananas and I realize someone obviously has more of it than I do

some say time goes fast and some say slow, which would you say is more prevalant in your life? depends on how distracted I am at the moment

why, if you dare, do you think time has these different aspects or feelings? I don’t think it has any aspects or feeling, I only attach my emotions to it…kind of like a color or a musical note (D minor is the saddest of all notes…)

what is time like when you are taking a test you studied really really hard for, and you know it all? fast, punchy, aggressive, red

what is time like when you are taking a test you know nothing about? (but should) swirly, disjointed, cold, wet, heavy

what is time like when you are just getting to know someone you find really interesting? multi-colored dots, non-existent, warm, alert

what is time like after a long hard working day? sludgey, heavy, opaque, yellow-orange

where has all the time gone? to my head

do chickens reveal anything about time to you? no

some say time goes fast and some say slow, which would you say is more prevalant in your life? way way way way too faaaaaasssssssssttttt

why, if you dare, do you think time has these different aspects or feelings? because time only exists as it does in my head because of my reflection back on it and the way I segment it into events that revolve around me. It gets hopelessly tangled up in my senses.

what is time like when you are taking a test you studied really really hard for, and you know it all? Stop ‘n’ go, but patient

what is time like when you are taking a test you know nothing about? (but should) pushy and punishing

what is time like when you are just getting to know someone you find really interesting? intermittent (sp?) and time has exact measurements—it feels like each question or reply has its alloted square of time.

what is time like after a long hard working day? it slows down for about an hour, then returns to normal.

where has all the time gone? into photo albums

do chickens reveal anything about time to you? only when I’m cooking them.

some say time goes fast and some say slow, which would you say is more prevalant in your life? more slow, with some short, fast windows (mostly vacations) When I had the flu last week, time stopped for my sickness

why, if you dare, do you think time has these different aspects or feelings? hmm. no idea.
