There seem to be two major theories currently.
The theory that the vast majority of people have naturally come to accept because it's the most sensible from a simplified and personal perspective is that time is constantly flowing in all places continuously ― beginning to end.
The less known and accepted theory is that every point in time exists simultaneously. To understand this, one can compare the universe to a DVD, Blu-Ray, etc. Any and all points within the movie exist on that disc simultaneously. It's simply a matter or rewinding or fast-forwarding to reach that point, and yet it moves in a coherent path on its own.
What is your view on the subject?
