That's probably my preferred view, but there are problems reconciling it with everyday experience. It would mean that all ages t of (say) me are living their lives equally, in some sense of equally.
But how does that explain the experience we have of living our lives in the order of the real numbers, and the fact that it keeps getting later?
A too-cute answer is, "Because the arrow of time points in the direction of increasing entropy." More carefully, how could you distinguish the experience of living the events out of order from living them in order, or from living them simultaneously? All you have is the state of your brain at that given point in time. -- Mike Stay - metaweta@gmail.com http://math.ucr.edu/~mike https://reperiendi.wordpress.com
