Louis, so far I did not take this very seriously but I have just
bumped into the confessions of Max Tegmark, the author of "Yes we all
believe in relativity, relativity, relativity":

http://www.edge.org/q2008/q08_4.html
Max Tegmark: "The world feels like a three-dimensional stage where
events unfold over time, but Einstein's work suggests that change is
an illusion, time being merely the fourth dimension of an unchanging
space-time that just is, never created and never destroyed, containing
our cosmic history like a DVD contains a movie."
