I believe that time/space past, present or future are not easy concepts for our minds to grasp, I heard a very inteligent lady state that "the future already exists, it's out of the dimension of time", and in my opinion she's right, time is movement, if the future did not exists then we would not be able to move into the next moment.
I have personaly had glimpses of myself in future times, some of which have come to pass.

funny thing, as a young man I thought of "seeing" into the future as "remembering", now in my email inbox there's an email from Amazon promoting things I might be interested in based on past purchases and or searches, one is a book "Remembering the Future: The Physics of the Soul and Time" by B. Alexander Agnew
sounds interesting.

I would love a discussion on the understanding of time/space and future, so in my post above, "the future already exists" one question that comes to my mind is "if the future already exists, and we are constantly moving into the future, is the future static or dynamic?"
or "can the past be changed?"
I happen to think that the past can be changed, it's intricately related to the future.

I find myself wondering how Casinos manage to make a living. I think both Blackjack and Roulette give the house lower odds than 53%.

It might be that you are referring to deja vu experiences - though these are now thought to arise from a breakdown of the recognition or familiarity processing of the brain.

Have you read McTaggert's proof that time does not exist?
