Time travel:-
Physically..I seriousky doubt it.
Mentally/Spiritually....Yes. in a way.(it mainly applies 2 ur own life though)
when u have a flashback, when u access ur memory to a moment back in time in ur life, that is a form of Mentally/Spiritually travelling back in time..

Time travel isn't possible and never will be.

It seems like it's just saying you can't change your fate if its already happened; not that you would even be able to get to the past to attempt to.
Besides, if time travel were possible then wouldn't we have had someone from the future come back to see us by now?

Thank you for reading.
The theory says that time travel is possible, but you can only travel as an observer, but not physically capable of altering any future outcomes. Even if you could interact with yourself and others in the past there are some principles already set in place that keep you from altering the future

Wonder if jesus has come back and found himself in a similar predicament?
I wanted to know if the Dagara elders could tell the diffrence between fiction and reality. The elders did not understand what a starship is, they did not understand what the fussy uniforms had to do with anything but they recognized in Spock a Kontomble of the seventh planet... they had never seen a Kontomble that big.

Had a theory about this subject some time ago, and think it probably is possible.
If you think about an inanimate object, lets say your computer. In 5 mins from now your computer will still exist. Does this mean that the physical matter of your computer recreates itself efvery second of current reality, OR does it exist in the future? Hardly the most scientifically descriptive hypothesis, but thought i'd share!

I read it a bit differently I guess because I didn't see any focus on claiming the possibility of time-travel, just the theory that if it were possible nothing could be changed because whatever happened in the past has to support the outcome of what has happened in the future.
Nevertheless, interesting theory. |

true, but by that theory (proving its existence in the future on its existence in the present) the computer would exist indefinitely.
What if there is an accident in 5 minutes and the computer is destroyed? Then the past present (5 minutes ago) really wasn't an accurate representation of the future present (5 minutes later).
I'm not trying to be argumentative, it's a good theory, but I love these kind of theoretical debates and it works better than coffee in the morning  off to work. |

Observer theory.
How can you go back in time and not change the time you went back in time?
**Hasn't read the link which is no doubt about the same issue**

And if you can't change the past then whats the point of going back in time, in doing so you're then changing the present/future.
Definitely possible as Black Pride says but I think you'd need to do away with the concept of time first, its a man made construct after all.
Everything is in the present as per zen Buddhism.
