If you don't know what time travel paradox is...
Simply put, if David has a son name George, when George grew up (25 years old now) and time travel back to a timeline before George was born, and killed David, this leads to a question... if David died, George couldn't have been born in the future and thus.. he wouldn't have time traveled back to kill David! It goes on and on... until your head explode..
This is just one of the theories I squeeze out from my head that might work.. or not.. so here goes:
Timeline is only consist of one axis.. so there's no parallel universe.. (sorry folks XD) so when someone makes a time travel back, they become an entity created on that time. In this case when George was sent back to before he was born, 25 year old George is created on that timeline and just appear there, because he's there, a new future is set and what happened in the future after this timeline is rewritten (it may resemble a little bit like what 25 year old George experienced, or it maybe not) if George didn't do anything stupid, those people that haven't interact with George (for example people living in China while George time traveled in U.S.) will have the same future after that timeline.
At this time George killed David, so David is dead, so you thought George will vanish like how Michael J Fox starts disappearing in the movie 'Back to the future'. But no, because George is somewhat created in this timeline and he's now real and exist in this point of time, killing David won't change this, and George can continue to live here happily ever after. (though I doubt it because he will go to prison). How about the course of future? of course after David's death, everything in the future was rewritten (no birth of George, friends of George will have different future) and it will be totally different from what 25 year old George has experienced.
That's why we have people with no identities, no parents, or even don't know who they are (side effects of time travel?) and where they came from. Maybe they were in fact... time travelers?
Thanks for reading.
[PS: please read the comments about this interesting guy called John Titor]
Go google on JOHN TITOR. The story of his is highly doubtful but it is nearly the same theory, that makes his prediction on our "future" (his past) allowed to be "inacccurate" by all means.
ReplyDeleteFor me, here's my theory, ALIENS, they are our distant future human form, their space ship is merely their time travel machine.
Here is one of the possibility....
One day (million of years away from now), a few dudes went to clubbing in some other galaxy. Then, when they're extremely drunk and speeding while travelling back with their MACH 100000 spaceship, they accidentally travel back through time crashed into earth then died.
Hence, the famous Roswell incident occured because of few drunk/high dudes speeding.
John Titor is quite cool wor.. even got schematics for the time machine and all.

if this guy a hoax he must be really smart, he knows a lot of terms and technical stuff and theories and equations.. I think is more believable that he's indeed a time travel than he is actually super smart that he could think out all the details for time traveling (such as the process, the experience, how it works, and knowledge about world events and all the scientific terms)
I also think that UFO = time travelers are highly possible. Since UFO normally vanishes very fast and don't like to have encounters with humans, probably because they scared that they will affect the future by exposing themselves. The butterfly effect must be a nightmare to them.
John Titor is really good read, thought provoking, sci-fi movie material, hehe..
