Sažetak
The paper deals with a question of existence of time from the philosophical and physical point ofview, respectively. A link between the direction in time and entropy is emphasized.In particular, the paper questions the link between McTaggart time series with certain physicalaspects of time as it is, for example, a correlation with Einstein’s theory of relativity. McTaggartconclusion on non-existence of time is discussed in detail, thus providing a proof for thisphilosophically obtained result to be a consequence of the application of onto-logical contradictioin adjecto rule of rationality. Finally, the paper mentions some recent philosophical and physicalhypotheses on the nature of time.
