Ah- got you there, too- I am also less than a second old, as at every instant the human body (as with most things) changes imperceptibly, and only the me in the instantaneous present is, strictly speaking, the true "me".:D

 
by that count, we are all the same age.

Blah... Stryke... :D
 
But if you'd be reborn every second, we still wouldn't be exactly "as old" as others around here. But almost... :)

Actually, yeah, we then would be equally old, since all the matter/energy in the universe is thought to be of the same age. :D

So? I move, my chemical composition changes (digestion, respiration, et al.) I'm never precisely the same person from one instant to the next. Thus, the person I am currently is less than an instant old.:D

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Well it couldn't really be otherwise going by the law of energy conservation; the atoms are of different ages but the quarks and leptons would be equal. :p

 
I'm 16 currently, 17 in september.  We should have had a poll for this with age ranges to choose.

You f00lz talking quantum shmack about the human body recreating itself every instant of Planck time are getting annoying.

It's starting to read like something from "Thief of Time," one of the latest in the Discworld series.  Y'all sound too much like Wen the Eternally Surprised...

As of sometime 6 months ago, I am 18.

And this makes how many times we've seen this topic in one form or another spring up here?

Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers in the preceding generation . . .Learn from science that you must doubt the experts. As a matter of fact, I can also define science another way: Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. - Richard Feynman

 
nope i'm 12.
