Ah... wouldn’t time travelers from the future have already been here, as well as to every other period in history? By their nature, they have already visited the past. Duh!
You have brought up an important point, re dimension Time: the resurrection of Jesus IS the opening of a new universe where time is volumetric in comparison to our planar time; in our planar time we are aware only of things from the past, not things in the present (limits set by light speed for data transfer), but with the new universe where time is volumetric, planar time is available to the residents allowing simultaneous contact with ‘all’ in the plane being occupied ... that’s how He also visited Old Testament times, such as in Dan 5 and ... well, you get the picture.
if I had a time machine I would not want anyone to know, humans today are too stupid
Tom Baker was the best doctor by far in my opinion.
Yeah, they built it at the CERN facility in Geneva... betcha a dollar, the first folks through will be bankers. Yep, go back, open a small savings account, then come back forward and reap the interest.
Of course access will be strictly regulated by the Swiss government. No records will be available and cash will be the way to hide your assets.
mmmmmmm time travel...might be nice to go back, double-tap the guys who took out Marylyn Monroe... or have a “good” cop intercept teddy while fleeing the scene...
“Time Travellers From The Future ‘Could Be here In Weeks’”
But then again, they could have been here yesterday too.
Ah, “year zero” was long before earth time was hospitable to humans - if we’re gonna delve in to time travel - let’s aim for places that have progressed beyond us = way beyond.
I wouldn’t tell either because somebody would find a way to tax it and my travels.
I hope this device has some other, practical, application so it’s not a total waste of money. Like SETI.
OK, so if they will be able to travel into the future, and not into the past beyond the date the machine was built, do you think they could travel far enough into the future to gain the technology and capabilities to then overcome that limitation? If so, then maybe future time travel will be more advanced than todays time travel theory's, and then we would be back to the original problem.
Just curious. What is your thinking on that?
For a Christian, it is Jesus' death that saves rather than his life. In his death he paid the penalty for sin that sinners like me deserve from a perfect, just and holy God. God has to punish sin otherwise he would not be just. It is only because Jesus took the wrath and judgment I deserve that I am saved from it. Further, I am reconciled to God and have peace with him through Christ's work in his death. God sent Jesus to die for us because he loved us even when we were against him.
I do not fear the judgment that is coming by God on a sinful world because his wrath for my sin has been spent on Jesus. There is none left for me. That is why Jesus Christ is my savior. He saved me from the judgment and wrath I deserve.
Finally, I have done nothing to deserve being saved. It is only by grace, where grace is defined as God's kindness towards those that deserve his wrath. Each of us much ask ourselves how we will fare in the final judgment. Not believing it is coming will not count for much when it arrives.
That is why dr who has a TARDIS. It travels 4 dimensionall)
Time travel is already possible. In a just over 8 hours from now I will step into tomorrow.
Ahem. Ping.
Ahem. Ping.
Austin: So, Basil, if I travel back to 1969 and I was frozen in 1967, presumeably, I could go back and look at my frozen self. But, if I’m still frozen in 1967, how could I have been unthawed in the ‘90s and traveled back to the ‘60s?
[goes cross-eyed]
Austin: Oh, no, I’ve gone cross-eyed.
Basil: I suggest you don’t worry about those things and just enjoy yourself.
[to camera]
Basil: That goes for you all, too.
Austin: Yes.
