Abstract: The article is devoted to the questions of the subjective perception of time by human. All events happening in our life (disregarding the fact whether they were apprehended or not) automatically saved or repressed. When they become part of the unconscious, they do not follow the chronological time any more but still influence us and our life. The time there is not linear as it is thought to be. There is no past, future or presence there. According to the author, such an asynchrony of time in our unconsciousness explains such phenomena as prediction, intuition and future prediction. We may feel something is going to happen but we often don’t acknowledge or accept it because such feelings contradict to the laws of logic and consciousness.

Abstract: The modern world is full of cruelty and violence. And there seems to be no limited to it. Aggression seems to be growing every day and every year. Is the humankind going ‘insane”? Or is it a natural process? Is the human nature cruel or is it some kind of a disease of our civilization? Philosophers have been trying to answer these questions throughout many centuries. But can a human be objective about these problems? According to the author, he can’t, because these problems are born within us, thus any our approach to this matter is only subjective.
