Texts often describe events as occurring “at the same time” across space, implying a universal clock. Relationally, simultaneity is not absolute — it is defined only within a network of interactions and reference frames. Treating it as universal encourages a Newtonian mindset that obscures relativistic insights: time is a relational ordering, not a pre-existing grid. Reality unfolds in relational sequences, not in simultaneity stamped on the cosmos.
