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.
Time is just comparing two events that had happened or are taking place. The only thing there is really is stuff like matter and radiation etc (molecules, sub-atomic particles, photons) and the present. The past is information or history of events that happened and the future is predictable but unknown.
