Time Travel Into the Past Might Be Possible (Not Requiring the Help of God)

"1. They would never be able to disguise as regular people. That never works. If they were doing that for all of time, then we would have (in concept) infinity extra people, so Earth would collapse, and the universe would be filled with dead bodies, blocking out the sun, destroying everything, so the future could not exist." The government could probably limit how many people could go all the way back to certain periods of time. Also, have you ever heard of a time tourist whose disguise failed, and resulted in his exposure? Didn't think so. "2. If the government bans something, that does not mean the people would not do it, so it goes with the same concept as above. Eventually, some one would have to succeed to break in and time travel back, so if one could do it, infinity could." But then the government could use time travel to arrest the person before he goes back in time. "3. http://en.wikipedia.org...... In order to sense light, the eye must be made of matter. If it was energy, it would not be able to do anything to it. Also, as energy, people would fly about endlessly, separated from the rest of them. They would essentially be dead when they tried it." So that's why none of the time travelers ever made it back to their original time... "4. As my ultimate counter, I will say that after an event has occurred, it is not recorded anywhere. It no longer exists. Think about what you did yesterday. Does anyone know exactly what happened everywhere (not including God)? No, they don't. This data would be necessary to recreate the past, and it is not there; thus, time travel is impossible." Now for the ultimate re-counter. A line is made up of an infinite number of points. A plane is made up of an infinite number of lines. A universe is made up of an infinite number of planes. Thus, time is made up of an infinite number of universes, arranged chronologically, all stored in a way that we cannot even understand. "Time: a nonspatial continuum that is measured in terms of events which succeed one another from past through present to future" And I'll bet that before Anaxagoras' time, the definition of Sun was: "A large shining disk in the sky that brings light to Earth with its appearance, and takes away light with its leave." The definition of Time would be changed to: "a nonspatial continuum that is measured in terms of events which occur between past and present and future" "Time is nothing but a measurement, just like distance." That's just one group's opinion, and has not been proved. Look at this debate: "http://www.debate.org...; Con is winning. "That is obviously impossible. Random actions do not cause time to move backwards, because it is always moving forwards. What happened no longer exists; there is only the present." You don't know that. "This is similar to the above response. Time moves forwards by definition. Also, this would involve bringing people back to life. Clearly, this would require the help of God." You don't know that, either. "Think back to when there was no TiVo. After a show was broadcasted on your TV, you would be unable to rewind, because this data was not stored anywhere. This is like the passage of time. It is not fully kept track of." Ah, but it is. "If they know how to travel back in time, someone would find it, go back in time, and ruin everything. Don't argue that they would just come back from later in the future, because there would be no future." Perhaps when something happens in time, the effects would spread in a ripple forwards, and if you can travel through time faster than this ripple, you can reach the time that existed ordinarily before you triggered the ripple, and this gives you enough time to stop everything. "If it is possible, we will discover it. There would be enough time to." Not if all of mankind eventually dies off. "In conclusion, time travel backwards will never be possible." In conclusion, time travel backwards might be possible, and there is no way to prove against it. Thank you.
