An argument showing time is temporal.

RE: An argument showing time is temporal.

Treating points in time as objects whose existence depends on time seems problematically circular. What do you mean when you say a point in time exists or does not exist at a given point in time. Do you define it such that they only exist in themselves by definition?
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.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
