Ken, you did not seem to answer any of the points in my last post.
Perhaps I have misunderstood you.
Firstly, you describe things popping into consciousness but do not
describe how they could be known. Suppose you imagine an 'apple', what
sees the apple? The apple is clearly 'out there' in your imagination
but how can it be imagined like this, what is doing the looking?
Secondly, I brought up a well known problem in psychology and
philosophy, the "specious" or extended present. We hear things
extended in time, just listen to a word, how much of the word would
you hear in no time at all? You 'answered' this by flatly denying that
time exists but we do indeed hear words extended through time and see
movements; if our consciousness were instantaneous this would not be
evident.
Most of our experience consists of experiencing things as if they are
'out there' and extended in time yet your theory does not seem to
tackle these things. (Can you imagine or perceive anything that has no
extent and no duration?).
Best Wishes
