If you ask me what time is I do not think I'm able to provide an answer. I do not think I'm able to define space too. The only think I'm able to say is the difference in space-time between time and space is that time flow in just 1 direction.

Well I guess you right from a math. point of view. In my opinion the physics is something different from math., i.e., math. is the "tool" we use to describe the universe through laws (physics).
Personally I do not believe that BH exist also if they are a math. possibility.
There are many...
I agree with the exception of the total mass rest. Why we do need a total mass rest? This looks like a concept we are "importing" from classical phisycs. The question is: we do need it?

Actually my thoght is that an integral over a finite 3 volume in full GR doen't make sense because c is finite and there is no rule which say how to relate 2 different point of the 3 volume (the 3 volume integral assume to make the integral at the same time for all the points... but this can't...
I'am startint to think thaf in full GR the integral over a finite volume don't have any phisical meaning; what is describing the full GR world are only the local equations.
So in full GR is a non sense to define the mass of a body with finite dimentions.
Any of you support this?

Pervect, my original question was also rised because also using the "simple" Schwarzschild solution you must use
dV = 4 \pi r^2 dr
Instead of the right formula for dV that u mentioned before to obtain the total mass.

Energy---> space time curvature
In general energy---> space-time curvature
Any sperimental evidence that electromagnetism--->space-time curvature?
