Things don't change, their functions do.. More accurately: Things do change over time but slowly. Functions change more quickly over time. A thing can perform multiple functions. Changes in a thing's numerous functions over an extended time can change what a thing is. Fundamental things change very slowly over time. Absolute things don't change. There are very few absolute things in the world. There is only one absolute Thing beyond the world. It has only one Function in this world. Our view of the Function of that Thing in the world changes. The Thing and its Function does not.
That is the way I see things.
