TTT, scientists hypothesize that time travel is possible. Through the use of worm holes, but there is a major problem worms holes are about a few nanometers across and only last for a few split seconds.

Here is a thread to discuss time travel and pose hypothetical questions.

Please don't cite wikipedia... because people like me edit it too..

If you really want to read about realitivity and Time travel, pick up Steven Hawking's book: The Universe in a Nutshell

Its possible? Even if you do go through a wormhole arent you screwed if you land in a messed up time period? I mean, you cant really tell where your going...oh boy listen to me this is ridiculous its not possible

It'll be something when we come to the day that we can control time travel. It will prolly be a long time from now.

Hmmm, I believe in God so I don't think time travel is even possible.

let's leave God out of this. This is about Time travel, anything otherwise will be spam. Thanks.

Actually it wouldn't be spam because the two are related. God obviously wouldn't let people time travel, but I see where you are coming from. So, I guess I'll stay out of it.

If we did go through a wormhole, how would we get back to the present? wouldnt we just keep going back?

yes it is spam, God has nothing to do with time travel, to some people God doesn't exist.

spam is defined as things posted irrelevant to the topic at hand, when people say time travel, they generally don't think about god, rather theoretical physicists such as Hawking, Polyakov, or Kaku.

any further posts regarding God will be spam.

this is a discussion, also this is "theoretical" learn to read, it will cut down on spam posts.


Scientists believe that using some kind of electric generator they can expand and hold up a wormhole a bit longer

A wormhole is supposedly a tunnel into a different part of the universe or time. Some people imagine the universe to be a sheet of paper, and if you fold it into a sideways "U" shape, that is the shape of the universe. The wormholes in effect allow you to travel instantly through space

there is no way it is possible because say you go back 50 years you would bring some people that are dead back to life which isn't possible

I know what you're saying but in this case it's not. Discussions are for people to express their ideas. Some people believe in God, some don't. And yes, God does have something to do with time travel. If you believe in God, you most likely don't believe in time travel because God obviously wouldn't allow a sniper to go kill Jesus. It just wouldn't happen. So basically, you contradicted yourself. As for the topic of this thread, it would completely be against the Christian religion if you really thought about it.

I believe in God, what now?
Jesus would have died either way, only to be reborn to take on the sins of man.

Jesus would probably know that a sniper was there, and where is this contradiction?

I heard a weird conclusion that we can't go back in time simply because it already happened or is going to happen, and one little change could change everyone's perspective and have an unseen effect on you.
But if it is possible, it isn't necessarily contradicting God. Assuming there is one, maybe God could make sure that whatever changes were made did not effect our mindset beforehand (like, maybe we could change events, and as long as we don't know that it will affect us, God will find a way to make it not change our mindset BEFORE traveling back through time). Just a little theory there, keep the debate interesting (hopefully).

Well, I was just using that as an example. What if someone killed Noah while he was building the ark. I highly doubt that God would let that happen. Which is why I don't think time travel could ever exist.
