See my bolded part in my previous post as it is a true statement which means that science is not relevant here. Logical tautologies are as absolutely 100% sound as a premise can get and presentism is based on premises that are logical tautologies so presentism is absolutely sound just as "all bachelors are unmarried" or "a square has four sides" or "A=A" is. Science can be almost certainly sound but not quite certainly (because scientific evidence isn't absolute proof) but tautological premises are absolutely 100% certainly sound.
Do you accept that science cannot measure what is beyond the experience of time (i.e. phenomenological time) and thereby cannot address time itself (i.e. noumenological time) because it requires observers that cannot transcend the phenomenological world in order to address the noumenological world by their very nature of their being observers?
What do I mean presentism is true? I mean that the claim presentism makes is true: the present is all that exists. The past existed and the future will exist but they don't exist.
Yes I repeat myself a lot. That's not relevant. If I say "A=A" a million times it doesn't change the fact that A=A.
I paraphrase myself a lot because I get frustrated in my failure to explain my point and/or the other person(s)'s failure to understand my point. So I try and make the same point in multiple wordings hoping that one of them will get through.
