Photons "draw" the world’s images and physics and evidently philosophy and theology, are "impressed" by the rays of light of these universal messengers.

It seems, for example, with the equations of Lorentz and the relativity’s theories, that the temporal character of things depends only on physical order of the energy, a terrible drift, a tragical drift of the understanding.

Let us repeat, time is characterized by durations and durations are not space intervals and therefore, durations can be only of transcendent order.

Besides, as we said previously, the time is an eternally available potentiality all over in the the universe,
and there is no emergence of the durations but only implication of durations in the real.
Consequently, there is no difference between durations particularly the ones which "punctuate" the internal life (spiritual) of the beings, notably the man’s life.
Nevertheless to admit it, it is necessary to understand differently the concept of spacetime which associates time to space ; indeed, this concept keeps silent about the essential processes : the recognition and the interpretation,
and too, the interrogation :
what is the entity who has the responsibility of these implications, of the recognition and interpretation ?,
this creative entity who uses non-spatial intervals to integrate the universe's evolutions into rigorous chronologies.

With regard to notion of interval, let us emphasize ambiguity and the "wealth" of this concept :

- ambiguity, because, contrary to what is commonly recognized, the space interval separating the phenomena (in other words : space) does not "contain" the forces and potentialities ; these virtualities are in a transcendent domain.
Curiously, this "beyond the reality" is ignored by the philosophers and theologians ; we had to specify it by word : spacimplicatio,
resulting from the contraction of the Latin words,
spatium (infinite domain),
and implicatio (implication's act).

- wealth, because the intervals represented by "whites", by space, by what is unspoken, ..., have conditions of positivity and of transcendence which are necessary for sense's diffusion.
So, intervals represented by whites are necessary for the languages's structure of the simplest to most elaborated, and even singular as the genetic language and computer's language.

Let’s return to the durations.
We consider that they are of a transcendent order, different from the one which qualify the nature (the order) of the energies and matter,
another essential fact that was never recognized by the philosophers and theologians.

Even Kant who thought that "space as form of exteriority is not less in us than time as form of interiority." (Cf. Critique of pure reason),
and wrote :
"So that I can associate sensations to something which is outside of me and, also, to represent to me things outside ... the space's representation has to be already recognized as a foundation. This representation cannot result of perceptions's experience of outside phenomena.",
has ignored the ceaseless "utilizations" of spatial and temporal references (as the durations) outside the human being : within the life's phenomenon and the universe.

This reasoning has had an important consequence.
Because of the fame of his author, it has maintained the philosophy in a narrow-anthropocentrism.
