I think it's likely our intuitive notions of time and causality will unravel the more that we learn about reality, leaving us with a picture of a more or less static model of universes without beginnings or endings.
I am too a fan of the MWI because I think.it is the most frugal and philosophically consistent interpretation of QM. Can you briefly sketch how you draw your conclusions for the nature of time from it?
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
