It seems to our brains that time passes, but does time really pass? Does
time really move in the forward direction? Perhaps time is an illusion.
I realize this sounds flaky. Robert Caudle's response to Tom Salyers's
question is right on one level. But if we inquire more deeply, maybe we
will find that the passage of time is not a physical event, but our
misperception of physical reality.
I would be interested in hearing from physicists.
