"Time is believed to not exist as a separate dimension, but as a byproduct of gravity."

I love this comment because I hadn't heard ^^ perspective before. Do you know what particular schools / models treat time this way, or are you inferring that this is the general conclusion of the field?



No, that is not what's believed in general, but gains in attractivity as a possible solution. That's because, it's simpler. I have read about it on various blogs and have also seen an inspiring TED talk about it, before it got removed.

Here's a similar video: The Origin of the Universe and the Arrow of Time by Sean Carroll: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_QMnG232Js
