A majority of academic people and the vast majority of nonscientists are still thinking in terms of the classical Newtonian scientific conceptioning of ‘instant Universe.’ While light’s speed of approximately 700 million miles per hour is very fast in relation to automobiles, it is very slow in relation to the ‘no time at all’ of society’s obsolete instant-Universe thinking. It was part of the classical scientist’s concept of instant Universe that Universe is a system in which all parts affect one another simultaneously in varying degrees.
"Contemporary science as yet assumes that all local systems in physical Universe are instantly and simultaneously affecting one another in widely ranging degrees of influence. (And the degrees of influence are governed by relative proximity.)
