A-series

This idea of the primacy of the tense calculus over the l-calculus (or, as he later put it, of McTaggart's A-series over the B-series) became a central and distinctive tenet of his philosophy.

In this respect, time resembles McTaggerts A-series.

Some of this was explored years ago by the philosopher McTaggert and his A-series and B-series.

He thought the A-series was self-contradictory due to the Zeno-like logic you mentioned.

The uncertainty principle seems to argue for the second choice (A-series).

However, temporalism is compatible with a range of A-series views.

The debate has been sharpened by the use of McTaggart's distinction between A-series and B-series accounts of temporal sequence.

The chief problem with this hybrid view is over the way in which the argument is set up, the coming into existence of the world being represented as an A-series temporal event for God.
