Perception comes into play in both time and space. The stars moving away from us don't actually turn red, so red shifting is not an objective reality. Something about the star moving away from us makes us perceive red.
n objective reality, a car moving away from me makes exactly the same sound as a car moving toward me, but because of the Doppler Effect, I perceive it differently.
The same is true of time. Ten years is ten years. whether coming or going, but time seen through the lens of memory is perceived differently than time seen through the lens of anticipation. It's all relative.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
