Now here's a difficult one!
Hmm... well, from the point of view of quantum mechanics, it is
beginning to look as though time does not actually exist. In other
words, as the mystics keep saying, the only real moment is now. Any
moment is just one of a myriad of possible configurations of particles
in the Universe that just happens to have become realized. This
configuration will include, for example, memories. Therefore, memories,
possible futures, possible pasts, plans, free will, destiny and fate are
all illusions.
I wonder if that's all true?
