The Unreality Of Time.

 Before reading the McTaggart article I presumed time as past, present, and future. Depending on a certain event and when it happened I would place it in one of those categories. Reading the article I did see my own view in one of his arguments. He said that a lot of people would change one thing if they could go back in time, which is something I usually say. However he shocked me when he said time goes together in events. If A didn't happen then B didn't happen and then C and so on. That makes a fair point because the time leading up to a certain event determines how you react in the moment and then the aftermath. Going back and changing one thing won't work as well where as if you change the past, present, and the future. He also said that the past, present, and future are all time series and relations in an endless cycle which I found interesting because I never looked at it like that before. I viewed time as always moving forward not in a cycle of past, present and future, but reading it now I understand that idea and it makes sense.
