barned01, that theory supports pre-determination aswell.
Everything that happens was allways going to happen, and we can't actualy think for ourselves, it's just an illusion. You had no choice but to go back in time an attempt to kill Lee Harvey Oswald, just as you where destined to fail, just as you where destined to do everything you do.
I hate that idea, even if it is true.
My actualy favorite version of time travel is that you can't do it. Time isn't a dimension that you can travers like X,Y and Z coordinates are. Time is just a measurement of decay. Onces something has decayed, it's no more. So you CAN'T go back in time. Time is not stored anywhere, so how could you go back through it?
You can however go fowards in time. We all do it every day. Traveling at the speed of light just means you travel through time slower, and thusly will still be alive 1000 years from now to see what happens. But you can't go BACK again.
You could simulate going back in time if you could invent a machine that could transform energy and matter. You could just take a snapshot of what earth was like in 2006, then in 2016, destroy the earth and create a new one that was as it was in 2006. However, the rest of the universe would still be in 2016. You couldn't transform the whole universe, as to store a universe worth of information, you'd need a universe worth of storeage space + the capacity to read it all.
