    ...to speak first. As in dictation. Is it possible to predict the future, which is happening presently?

    Surely no prediction is required if the future is happening presently??????

    Just look around and report what you are seeing

    If you are asking is it possible to predict the future the answer is yes.

    I pre-dict that "lookingfor..." will come back with a response.

    I have a question, can we change the past, which is happening presently?

    The past is not happening presently. The future is.

    I disagree. We are moving through time. The present passes immediately. Hence the future is happening.

    I predict that the sun will rise tomorrow.

    Would anyone like to place odds on that bet?

    This is irrelevant in this thread.
    Whatever does not does not exist has no bearing on whether we can or can't predict the future - as noted by the previous post. Future or no, no one is going to challenge me to the above prediction.

    Please, let's have one thread that isn't hijacked by 'does the future exist'?

    That was not my prediction. I am predicting something in the future.

    But what of this disappearing ball? I predict it will rise the morning after.

    I'm afraid I don't understand what you are asking here.

    Your OP asks if we can predict the future. I assert that I can. Results will be in in about 12 hours (for me), at which point I expect to be vindicated.
    My media tour will follow shorlty thereafter.

    My prediction negates yours...

    How?

    Did you assert that the sun will not rise tomorrow?
    Because, if you did, I'd very much like to place a large bet with you.

    Regardless, it still wouldn't negate my prediction. Whatever that means.

    Noooooooo

    The past does not exist

    The future does not exist. It is a POSSIBILITY

    We do not move through time

    NOW is the ONLY moment happening

    History AND the future both exist. Instead of meddling with prediction why don't you bang me clean out?

    This is a phrase I have heretofore encountered.
    I am ... hesitant to address it.
