I've been reading a lot about time lately. The illusion of time. Something occurred to me, a very weird thought. Does this actually have any basis or any way it could be proven scientifically?

I was thinking that all moments are eternal and occur simultaneously. In other words you never leave this exact moment. The passage of time that you think has happened is a result of the brain's memory function.

Sort of analogous to if you just popped into existence this second with a backlog of fake memories. But this being true of every single moment in time, you never actually leave any moment you're in to reach the next.

You are dead right now and also not born yet. Yet you are here alive. It's fucked up as hell, but it makes sense to me. It also to me explains some other oddities in time, I'm compsci not physics, but from what I know of the quantum eraser it is like the light "travelled back in time", retroactively changing the result. But if the moment of observation by the machine (or whatever) has already happened, the result is determined before it happened as there isn't any such thing as a before.
