Time Travel:

Time travel is impossible due to the fact that time is linear, like a movie reel. If you tried to move backwards, the normal force pulling time forward would cause a rip in time, somewhere in the middle of the interval. If you were in the year 2020 and tried to go back to 2000, somewhere between 2000 and 2020 time would be destroyed. The pressure would be the greatest at the point of reentry, so the rupture would be closer to the reentry. Due to the fact that time is energy, the to end are now of opposite poles. The two poles would be pulled back together, but it would not fit perfectly. This is where the deja-voe and ESP come from. If the "film" is slightly overlapped, we see slight reflections of events, ether past or future.

Creation:

Creation is fallacy, because there is no proof that it, at some point, anything didn't exist. Because time is liner, it moves on infinitely in both directions. Hence the conservation of matter/energy, everything becomes something else

Dinosaurs:

There is no doubt that the impact of an asteroid caused the extinction of the dinosaurs, it does not mean that it did it immediately. As with any great disaster, the impact would be very importance in “history.” If some of the dinosaurs survived the initial blast, there is a slight chance they could have adapted. In fact, they may have evolved to a point beyond what man is now. If they did, they may have elected to use their advancements to go back in time and destroy the asteroid. With my above theory, this would have destroyed any time between the departure and the point of reentry, with an error of a few years.
Now this may seem very absurd, but the fact that the total extinction was quite rapid. Even if a layer of dust covered the earth, the age of fossils found around the earth would be in a cone shape. The fossils found at the site of the impact would be the oldest, and those farthest away would be the youngest.
If the cloud of dust were powerful to destroy every dinosaur, the earth would be sterile, to the point that humans could not be evolved. Even the tiniest of organisms need some light. The bottom feeders of the sea feed on those above, who feed on those above them.
Last, even if some dinosaurs survived yet did not evolve, the rate of evolution to other species would have occurred to rapidly. This might only make sense if you have heard the theory behind the bird species. Some believe that the common sparrow evolved from the T-rex, based on it bone structure.

Now, I ask you all to post your own beliefs.
Please keep this post clean and constructive.

About the God/creation idea you hold so dearly, Moose. Here are a few links about cosmology. As you will see. The god of the gaps approach (where when you can't explain something, you fill it with the God concept) is not real science.







I know these links are not about time travel directly, but to understand time travel you have to understand cosmology as the two are interlinked. :D

meh....I shouldn't even respond...

Mass does not cause gravity. You are using Newtonian Physics (g=G*(m1*m2/r*r))for the wrong purpose, it is merely a macro explanation accurate only for large scale applications. Gravity is cause by, well, no one really knows. Most likely it is a direct result of strong or weak nuclear attraction. Perhaps it is related to quantum foam, or still yet superstrings. I'll let you know when someone in a particle accelerator figures it out.

Time Travel...oh my. First, if time were linear, then time travel would be possible as lines have dimension. What you meant was that time was scalar. Rips in time? Time is energy? Facts? Eh? Mass and energy are related, this is factual, time is not in that equation. I think you are looking in the wrong places for answers. Read Einstein (even though he got a lot of it wrong). Also read on the constancy of the propagation of light. Consider that time slows down as speed increases. Time stops at c (speed of light), and mass becomes energy after becoming essentially infinately massive. Read read read...you seem to like this stuff.

God...he's behind the curtain (read Einstein).

Dinasours...I didn't think there was a debate...is there?

The Big Bang Theory has not been proven...THEORY is not just a clever name.

The gravity accelerating time thing is Star Trek science...not reality.

Those without formal training DID actually go about using the scientific method of engaging their theories. Imagination is great, and useful. I love this thread. But there must be some scientific basis in a theory or it is pointless.

my personal belief is you don't rule anything out. you never know.

anyway, i was posting this to see the reaction... im thinking of writing a book (fiction) about what would happen if the dinosaures became smart.

its way out there, but thats the way i like it.

if someone thinks that all mater is composed of muffins, so be it. i think its just fun, even if my theorys make me sound high.

this is the worst thread i've ever seen. you know this is gonna start a flame war dont you? oh god...

it always amuses me when people like moose start talking like they are theology scholars or professors of physics.

give it a rest everyone. remember what happened last time?

i thought i'd set the gravity thing straight though. i hapen to know that the current theory is that gravity is a force that is actually 'leaking' into our universe from other universes.

thinking in 11 dimensions (just 1 is time) they've come up with the idea that everything is made of tiny 'strings' that vibrate. we are essentially made of the 'music' that those strings produce in some kind of cosmis symphony.

what happens is theres lots of 'membranes' floating about inside the 'multiverse' and when two collide they create a universe. or something. and thus parallel universes where they differ from ours by just one PARTICLE are very possible. there are even universes out there with completely different laws of physics where atoms dont hold together, things could be made of just electrons... who knows.

i remember some doctor saying "imagine if a gamma ray passed through hitlers mothers womb and she never fell pregnant" one particle would change the world... i wont pretend to be an expert on this but thats about it on gravity...

time travel. possible. i dont know how but its gotta be hasnt it? nothing is impossible. really. it just takes time (no pun intended)

anyhoo... thats it.
