Well, if the premises are wrong, all the shut up and calculate is just garbage in, garbage out.

As these mobile organisms, this sentient interface our body has with its situation functions as a sequence of perceptions, in order to navigate, so our concept of time is the present going past to future. It's the basis of culture and civilization, as narrative and history.

The reality though, is that activity and the resulting change turns future to past. Tomorrow becomes yesterday, because the earth turns.

There is no dimension of time, because the past is consumed by the present, to inform and drive it. Causality and conservation of energy. Cause becomes effect.

It's a tapestry being woven of strands being pulled from what was woven.

Like seeing the sun going east to west, when the reality is the earth turning west to east.

So pretty much everything is just patches over the holes in the prior patches...
