The author refers to the classic controversy between substantialism, attributivism and relationism in the ontic analysis of time. He is persuaded that the substantialist interpretation of time is erroneous and tries to make his point by citing the methodological postulate of Occam's Razor. On the positive side, he argues that the temporal relationism is the best position in the debate. Finally, he discusses tenses and comments on their ontic status.
