Yes, but as it would apply to time.
A straight line, doesn't branch, doesn't loop, continues "straight" on, and there is a constant invariable instant between events, but not that it is absolute.

I wasn't meaning to go off on whether or not the present exists, I just wanted to point out how time is definitely not as we see it.
Read my posts about how I view the nature of free will again and you will see how everything being laid out as I said in my last post is perfectly in line with it.

Of course it isn't exactly how we view it. We view it as completely separate from space. We can't perceive time warps on a sensual level so on and so forth.
If you don't want to elaborate that's fine. But I'd rather have a back and forth with someone than be referred to books on consciousness.
