New and curious; come and share
Greetings,
I?m new to this forum, and pretty much the whole concept of time travel. I have always had an interest in it, I remember arguing its validity back in primary school, but I have never really pursued the interest until now. I?m sure my lack of knowledge will shine though as I continue here, I would be really grateful if people would share their knowledge, ideas, theories and thoughts with me.
I?m particularly interested in how god and religion comes into the whole ?time travel? thing. I?ve always been quite a sensible person. I mean, you show me scientific proof and I?ll believe you, but until then, not a chance. I suppose that?s what?s stopped me from ever really believing in god, or divine power. I just think on all the planets, in all the galaxies there is bound to be other life. And circumstances differ from planet to planet so greatly, life would be so far removed from what we know, we probably wouldn?t even recognize an alien if we saw one. I?m also a firm believer in evolution, no ?Adam and Eve? for me, as far as I?m concerned we all came from our prokaryote ancestors going around engulfing one another. Because of this I just can?t believe we were created in god?s image.
I?m not sure if god?s existence would alter the possibility of time travel, but surely if time is not linear, and if we are able to bend and manipulate it, to change our pasts and/or futures, then would we not be messing with ?gods? will, and of course, free will? Would ?god? allow that? Or perhaps time travel IS gods will. The mind boggles?
Feel free to shoot me down here, but I would dearly love to hear others opinions on this.
Also, if you ever need someone to bounce ideas off, share your theories with, discus time travel with, or just chat too, feel free to add me to MSN <span style=\'font-family:Wingdings\'>?</span> <a href=\'mailto:where_[email protected]\'>[email protected]</a>
