You're riding a high horse there, EINSTEIN.  #1) Wormholes are merely theoretical UNPROVEN constructs that Kip Thorne's been playing around with. 
 To say they prove anything is to say that YOU don't know anything about what science means.  #2) If you really do understand physics than you will have to 
agree that for space-time to be curved there must be a limiting velocity, c, 
the speed of light at which any matter can travel, hence through simple
 argument, the impossibility of time travel.  Unless you are a tachyon there is very little possibility of traveling through time. Sorry I had to talk shop 
to all you non-physics majors

...like you..  You should try "noticing" your own set of pompous belief systems before bagging on anyone else's.  But I guess it is your own belief system
 which says "I'll flame the dumb f&@#s!" Nazi.

Because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it does not exist. (excuse the triple negative).  Have you ever seen a wormhole? If so I think you should jump in 
ASAP and zap yourself to a dimension more suitable to your theories (ie.the 
stone age)  Beam me up Dr. Spock.
