HISTORICAL PAST VS METRICAL PAST

Philochrony distinguishes between the historical past (HP) and the metric past (MP). The historical past refers to the events that have already occurred. The metric past refers to dates prior to the present. The HP is not real, but the MP is, because time is an objective-abstract property of universe.

For example:
1- Destruction of the Berlin Wall (11-09-1989).
2- Attack to the Twin Towers (09-11-2001).
3- Indonesia earthquake and tsunami (26-12-2004).

The historical past is the events arranged chronologically and the metric past are the dates. Although the HP is not real we have evidence that it existed. Our date of birth is real and known. Our date of death is real but unknown. Death is an inevitable fact.
