  Past, Present & Future
A blog by Alan Ewing


 

The latest scientific thinking is that time travel to the past is not possible. This being because it is still happening. The evidence of this lies with the expanding universe and how we can look back in time to the early stages of the universe with telescopes. Same as in how light from stars emanated at an earlier period of time and yet we are seeing it in the present. We cannot go back to what is still happening

The present is a product of the past. It only exists maybe for a fraction nano-second as time keeps moving. So to be in the present may well be a misconception. The present tense becomes the past tense within the flicker of an eye-lash. So therefore our concept of the present moment is always out of date. And of course, as explained, we cannot go back to the moment that has passed.

The future then. Well, once again we cannot go into it. We can only predict what with the evidence that lies before us. Scientific thought says that all stars die and that eventually we will be left with black holes. All ends with The Creator, my own personal belief system. Again, on the question of the universe collapsing in upon itself, then The Book of Revelation says that everything will return to God, including Christ. Our choice is to believe that all of this is meaningless, or else something is behind it.
