George Orwell, 1984:

"Die größte aller Ketzereien war der gesunde Menschenverstand [...]
Freiheit ist die Freiheit zu sagen, daß 2+2=4 ist. Sobald das gewährleistet
ist, ergibt sich alles andere von selbst."

if the past changes, (why should the past not change?) how would you know?
you and all others are a result of the past. so - you would never register
it.
if the future changes, how would you know either.

so the question is:

is the future changing, or the past. or now ? or is anything planned
in beforehand. is there free will ?
