Counterpoint: humans live our lives linearly, meaning we flow on one point forwards through time. We live in the present, but that doesn't mean the past and future don't exist. They simply seem like ideas or memories because we have no other way of perceiving time.
Itâs crazy to think the past and future donât actually exist. Theyâre only ever a memory or an idea.

Countercounterpoint: There's no way for us to know which of these it true, so we may as well just not think about it 
(but if the showerthoughtsbot theory is true, this discussion wonât exist if we stop thinking about it 
)
Is âexistenceâ limited to what is actively perceived by a conscious being? Or does this discussion, after we stop thinking about it, continue to exist on Jeffaloâs hard drive?
