Philosophers generally agreed. After all, the past is just a selective memory; your recollections of an event are different from mine. Both memories are simply that—signals from brain cells, neurons firing in the present moment. If the past is an idea that can only occur in the here and now, and the future is also just a concept happening strictly in the present, there seems nothing but now. Always. So is there really a past and a future? Or just a continuum of present moments?
