Mind-blowing Discussion

        In class today, we had a very weird discussion that blew my mind. The teacher kept questioning us on time and now we don't even think there is a present.......

          Notes:

     - Sir Sandford Fleming proposed a worldwide system of time zones in 1879. In 1876, his first proposal was for a global 24-hour clock. He also proposed his system at the International Meridian Conference in October 1884, but it did not adopt his time zones because they were not within its purview. By 1900 almost all time on Earth was in the form of time zones. Today all nations use standard time zones for secular purpose, but they do not all apply the concept as originally conceived.

                    ........and i'm still asking, is there a present?? Why does it say in all the books that there is a past, present, and future? If the books say that, then people must have done a lot of studies to explain that there is a past, present, and future. But in forty-five minutes I am more confused and what I thought all along might now be changed.
