Time is hardly a physical factor, in my personal opinion. If clocks never ticked, or calendars were never written down, we would not be having this discussion. It wouldn't be measured in seconds, days, or years, as it would just be a blissful existence, with us only understanding so far as to the sun rising and setting each day. We would grow older, yes, but not in the sense that "time was passing;" simply put, our bodies were aging.
It may be hard to comprehend, but in the end time is still just a creation of the minds of man. It's just the same as the Fahrenheit Effect - once an idea is created, no matter how many books you burn, you can't kill it. Same as with time - no matter if you destroyed all the clocks in the world, people would still consider it to exist.
Remember, science may hold answers, but without the human imagination there would be no science to begin with.
