Are You Religious?

Well, I grant you that the way we think of time is our own construct. But the fact that we move through time (at a steady rate apparently) and in only one direction -- we didn't think that up ourselves. We have a start and end point in time, so in that sense one's entire existence has a "time" dimension.

My point is that there is an external reality, and the time we experience and are stuck in doesn't exist there like it does here.
