I hope it's TRUE so I can take back all those words that hurt you.

This type shite is completely above my intelligence level. I don't even get half of the jokes in this thread. Well, except for Owlfans, that was pretty funny.

Now I know how Krissy from Three's Company felt all the time.

That's not exactly time travel. If you apply an outside force, you can reverse entropy. Did they not use the computer program to make the particles return to original state? Is that not the same as me re-racking the balls? Think these nerds are getting a little to excited.

I mean, I can stuff my wife's inner labia back in to make it look young again from the outside, but that ain't time travel.

I can also go to my clock and manually turn the hands backwards.

What a load. There’s literally no possible way to move a physical object, no matter how tiny, from one point in time to another. Because the past has already happened and the future hasn’t even gotten here yet. If there were time travel, what would it consist of in the future? 

Because that “time” doesn’t exist or has happened yet.


He subscribes to a B-theory of time. You're describing an A-theory of time. I agree with you, but the B-theory of time is in vogue with most physicists and the kids that want time travel to be real.

What you are failing to realize is that in the quantum realm we have verifiable proof that quantum particles aren't impacted by space or time. Some equations do not even use time in predicting outcomes.

Look at the double slit and electrons. shite makes no sense and the fact one photon (not electron) can pass through BOTH slits at the SAME TIME boggles our minds. Now go throw two tennis balls through the slit's. Chanced of it happening at the same time is a no go.

The way particles and waves act when observed seems to shows clearly that space and time don't mean two hill of beans to its properties.

So time is a construct for how we exist but it isn't necessarily a real thing. It is a property of our existence. What makes you think higher dimensional beings such as God obeys anything close to our own?

So what is time? Hell, even physicist give differing ideas.
