Understanding How Change Relates to Timeand relativity theory. Contributions from Aristotle, Francisco Suárez and Augustine to understanding key issues such as the relationship between time and change, the relative duration of changes, temporal measurement and temporal asymmetry are considered. In a next step, the relationship between cha

Our Changing World and the block universe: one where there is no global passage of time, yet change and the past-future distinction are real. Events, considered independently of observers, nevertheless fall into possible and actual, rather than past, present, and future. It is then argued, based on probabilistic cons

Does God Change?n the following chapters. This chapter argues that God as the foundation of being cannot be an entity which is limited or lacking in perfection in any way. On this basis, it is shown that it is impossible that God change. At first sight, this would seem to lead to the consequence that divine action

Next, it is explored whether, absent a global time, the notion of “world” as a unified whole is still meaningful—including in a multiverse context—and if so in what s

Again, however, a close look at this phenomenon reveals that it undermines, rather than saves, such privileged simultaneity.
