Science teaches us that time is part of nature. We have many formulas, which are including the time as a parameter, we can calculate the states of the physical systems, what will be or how was it before by using these formulas. The relativity theory even teaches us that space and time inseparable and similarly fundamental both.
However, we know the causality as well. Nature works on causes. Every state of a system determined by its state before even if this determination based on probably only. Our current state determined by our immediate state before and our current state determines our immediate next state too utilizing the physical laws. This is the causality. This is even true for systems utilizing non-local variables.
Our current state determined directly by our immediate state before and not by earlier states. This means direct determination. Of course, the earlier states have a determination to our current state but this determination only indirect through the steps of the immediate states.
However, if the causality is true then no room for the time to act. If every state determined by its immediate state before then, we do not need time. The time is only the chain of the events, but its role is only the documentation of the events and not a fundamental and determining part of our nature. The formulas with the time parameter are guesses, educated guesses, how were before or how will be later, skipping intermediate states but nature calculates every state without skipping.
If causality is true, then time is only a concept, a useful but only approach to reality.
