I have never understood how humanity could possibly be so vain as to think that the way we view things is how it really is. Our perception is not the ultimate reality. Only ours.
As you're not too big on the concept of time (re: existence of), then you're probably not a big proponent of evolutionary theory ... but I'll give it a shot anyway. What would you say to the theory that mankind preceives things the way they do because we have evolved, I daresay molded by nature, to only explicity know things (for certain) empirialistically and, at our best moments, logically. Metaphysics is enjoyable to me too but are we really designed to be able to know much more than hypothetically in that sense.
