While I put consideration of the "block-universe" concept and directly-related statements until I understand them (and what you mean by them) properly, I find the rest of this post to be a very good description* of my own current model of nature.

I'd like to know more about this "block-universe" concept, though. I'm not sure if it would clash with my own model of relativity interactions, and if so, I want to know how. My understanding of relativity is, admittedly, rather limited and untrained/uneducated, so any non-trivial evidence at this point is very much worth it. If you could point me to a paper or book on the subject, that would be even better.
