The problem with the past and future being ontologically real like the present is that it's hard to understand how change is supposed to work. I think it pushes us into a view where objects do not ever exist fully at any one instant in time.
Our understanding about the true nature of the physical universe is expanding to extreme mind-blowing proportions, yet simultaneously, the mainstream understanding of reality is regressing in equal measure.
Our modern public awareness is in a particularly antithetical awareness.
The result: dogma and hierarchical control are the deterministic factors steering our collective future.
We are advanced and pathetic at the same time. We are irony personified globally, collectively.
Its always been my opinion that coniousness and the aparance of free will are governed by Hisenburgs uncertainty principle, if this axiom works at the quantum level what reason would there be for it to be different for the 'flow of' or progress [path] of time? if Hisenburgs principle is aplicable to 'daily life' then we will not be able to understand the nature of time and its relationship to space, whilst we are aware of this flow. [i.e. until we are asleep or dead]
@JUNKYARDOGvideos This is at the center of the nature of religion, particularly religious trance, preying, ritual, dancing, eucharist and many other 'mystical' practices. leaving the normal living state and 'steping back from life' let us see the nature of time and space with more perspective. we are a long way off [in both space and time] from an acceptable understanding of eirher.

They put too much special awe to consciousness. That's where computer science comes in people... A brain is just a brain. Study neural networks if you want to know how cognition works. Time flows from our frame of reference... that's what special relativity says...
@TimJSwan89 yah i must agree, esp human brain, i don't think it's really that special, if u look at the evolution of the brain, from reptiles to mammals in a crude sense it's just layers of senses piled on, with humans we are sort of the winning choice to survive in the plains of Africa. Why would the brain evolve to deal with quantum events? Doesn't make much sense to me at the moment
@featheredmusic because the brain hasn't evolved to deal with quantum events, it always has dealt with quantum events. our neurons emit electrons, electrons are quantum particles which obey QM. Our brain is, in a sense, a 'quantum computer'. choices that we make might rely on nothing more than a particle of electro-magnetism. its one reason why the universe could split with every action or thought taken (many worlds interpretation) without QM there is no free will, only causality.
@infinitenight2093 Well i guess that's my point is that why would the brain need to evolve to deal with quantum events, i mean does it help us survive? Do we need to understand the workings of particles on that level? You have a good point too though
@featheredmusic I don't see how it would help us to survive, unless you say that the quantum connections between neurons in our brains makes us smarter/ more capable of surviving. Its necessary to understand the behavior of particles on such levels so that a unified theory can finally be developed. such a theory would bring about phenomenal scientific discoveries and inventions, not to mention the impact it would have on society.
Relativity doesn't say time doesn't flow.... It does... Relativity supports that too. It just reminds us that time flows at different rates for different velocities. The only way time won't flow is in the reference frame of the speed of light, which has undefined elapsed time. If you were to go faster then the speed of light then time would be an imaginary number I think. I think that's why it's possible for one particle to be in two places at one time.

Michael Mosley and David Malone make terrific documentaries! Just another example of their fine work.

Nice video!!
Newton believed time was a thing in itself it seems odd that physics has no understanding of time
