Duh. It's no surprised you are confused faker. You should have known 
better than to attempt "deep thoughts".

Today's future becomes today's present tomorrow then tomorrow, today's 
present becomes tomorrow's past. It's so simple faker and not "deep" at 
all. If there is no future then tomorrow nothing will exist. So far 
there has always been a future.

what you believe is the future or tomorrow is just a simple rotation of
the earth's axis..

the earth has no idea what you're talking about...


"Today's future becomes today's present tomorrow then tomorrow" Is that
a joke?

You believe in the hereafter...

Could be but then NOBODY has any idea what in Hell you are talking about.

So long as the hereafter keeps becoming now the next day, I believe in 
it. When it stops, then we can doubt the hereafter. You are obviously 
having trouble with "deep thoughts". No surprise as you are still an idiot.

of course it will. Overnight it just changes its name!
Of course it's still the same thing (time) but in the lib nutjob world, 
reality is determined only by names and imagination, never by what 
something actually is. This in lib writer worlds starmaker and starfaker 
are two different people. Trust me. Starfaker you are STILL an idiot.

I'm not worried if there is a future. Chances are pretty good there is 
and if there isn't nobody will know. My problem is more practical, 
namely, I worry if in MY future your drooling "deep thoughts" blather 
will be in it. I keep hoping your future does not exist, but so far no 
such luck.

Starmaker's deep thoughts have not been in MY world for four or five
years.  Except when someone like you takes a liking to him.

Killfile him.

okay, I'll explain in a different way...

no future
no past

you just have memories and
dreams of the past and future.

the past and future is all in your head.


Now, ..i mean NOW

the present..
the always present

is made of of 
millions and billions
and trillions
of units
yous call...events.

Yes, tell us about your ..."probable futures"!

Starfaker, if you knew any science at all (which you do not) You'd know 
that causality is a natural law in the earth. This law states that "no 
present events are ever determined by future events". Since we are all 
living in the present (or more exactly just a little bit past it), this 
law shows that the actual future can never be known because there is 
NOTHING that can be monitored in the present which can be associated 
with the true future. Hence one can never know for certain even if there 
is going to be a future a moment from now.

On the other hand "the most probable future" is another matter. In 
nature there is phenomena observed which is termed "inertia" This from 
Newton is that objects hurtling along in a straight line just as they 
are unless acted upon in some manner. That means that all objects 
sliding into the future will for the most part exist in the next moment 
of time pretty much as they are in the previous moment. Inertia. What 
this allows is for one to make a PROJECTION of the "most probable" 
future. You can't offer any guarantee of it, but generally speaking 
experience has shown that most such projections do indeed come to pass.

Starfaker you are still an idiot.

Obviously not very effective in your case.

Depends if the future is really there to reach or not. I can't tell if 
it is. (Deep thoughts).
