why?

Time is an illusion by which we understand causation. I don't think it is necessary for causation to exist. Indeed, the whole notion of the past seems a bit wierd to me. Surely when we think about the past our thoughts are in the present? So we are actually experienceing something in the present. So, I don't see how the past exists in any real sense.
If the past doesn't exist, then what of the future? An interesting thought...
