It's not really an opinion is it? It's just a fact. The truth.


Do you really believe some people have psychic powers or the ability to predict the future? Wouldn't they use their power for either a) making loads of money or b) saving the world rather than getting ?50 a pop for telling gullible types that they'll meet a tall dark stranger?

And if there was no one there to see it at the exact time that it was posted - did it make sense?

Not that it matters - you are all figments of my imagination anyway.

No. I don't mean the past exists in the present. Only that the present is all that exists now. What happened in the 'past' may indeed affect the present because most of us find it difficult not to try and live there or in the future. Thereby missing the only moment they have that's actually real, the present.


We are in the top half of the hourglass. What's in the bottom half is what was and is no more.

But isn't the star proof that the past existed in the past, or are you suggesting that light magically materialises in your eye?

We good test for it but tests imply cause and effect which, though rather begging the question again, probably imply that time is linear therefore the past existed.

    • Adding a recommendation for Andy, who just did a job for us hanging heavy mirrors and pictures in our house. He gave a clear and fair price, works very tidily, made sure that I was happy with the work and placement of the pictures and is very pleasant to have around. 
    • In what sense? Be more specific  (and I have worked in retail and hospitality)  nothing I said is in any way anti-retail as far as I can see  Out of interest and for comparison, which country do you think gets it right to a significant degree?
    • The root of all these problems is that the model of capitalism pursued in this country for the last 45 years has failed utterly. It’s only true beneficiaries inhabit an ever decreasing circle of have-lots in a sea of have-nots, defended by an increasingly squeezed band of born at the right time boomers, which surely cannot hold. 
    • I'm talking about parts of the country economically deprived, some that never recovered from the loss of traditional industries. But in your point, yes, there are those that are never happy.  We should be reasonably happy in this area.
