Are we then concluding that their perspective of life is the best since they see things in the now and not in the past or future ?

I first read about the pirahã a decade or so ago when I read Everett's book called "Don't sleep there are snakes" (which is the way they say "goodnight"). It's absolutely fascinating.

But how did they ask, “Did you see Jesus?” Or “have you seen Jesus?” if they didn’t have past tense?

This why Languages should be kept alive, because each one let's Us see the World in many different ways according to the Culture & Environment.

This is a constant in human knowledge: we reach a point in which we think we “know it all”, we have “universal rules”, and then we find that a rule is not universal, and we adapt. End less cycle of learning

This is super interesting. Now I wonder if their ancestors lost the use of past/ future tenses or did we in the distant past not have these and only gained them later on?
