Professor predicts human time travel this century
This guy thinks he can get a neutron to travel through time. Leviathan.Chaosx said: My point was you still remember what you thought was true even though someone convinces you of something else. Your old idea is still in memory. Anyone that's ever played ffxi knows time travel is real. lol
You start playing at 8am....kill a few mobs, blink a few times... and your spouse is yelling at you to get to bed its after midnight already >.> Phoenix.Jile said: Anyone that's ever played ffxi knows time travel is real. lol You start playing at 8am....kill a few mobs, blink a few times... and your spouse is yelling at you to get to bed its after midnight already >.> Leviathan.Chaosx said: My point was you still remember what you thought was true even though someone convinces you of something else. Your old idea is still in memory. what if you didn't have that old idea in the first place. that's what I was hinting at :/ Lakshmi.Mabrook said: You're from Canada (my 2nd home I never been to yet lol) Spence so you'll stay awesome np lol, but Vinvv on the other hand is an argumentative realist that thinks he anger me with petty comments lol. Also, Equilibrium is an awesome movie lol. funny to think so IMO.

You can change textbooks, you can change written history, you can change anything regarding recorded history, but you still haven't changed what really happened. in regards to the textbook stuff. that type of change isn't a direct change. it's more of an over-time change. meaning that over time people will not know what is really true. that concept is especially true in this day and age when it comes to past events IMO(aka 911/war on iraq...etc) He's getting at the notion of Plato-style epistemology and the concept of universal Truth (beyond perception.) Sort of like when Plato espoused the idea of men who live their entire lives chained in a cave and can only see each others' shadows cast on a cave wall, and whose entire concept of reality is based on shadows of actual objects and what they perceive as reality are shadows. http://www.historyguide.org/intellect/allegory.html The idea being that what we know to be reality and what the chained men see as reality are two different things, but (supposedly) the reality we know is the correct one and theirs is based on faulty perception. Thus (again supposedly) the universal Truth of the situation supersedes the subjective reality caused by human perception of events. Of course New Age 420-lifestyle thought will easily counter the notion that we can possibly know anything or everything, but Plato at least makes a good effort in suggesting universal Truth exists. /end tangent :p Quote: Even if you convince someone of something they still have the memory of the what they thought previously. I don't know if you guys are thinking I'm thinking in terms of my own timeline..I didn't think I illustrated it that way. What I was referring to mainly was an adjustment in perception over time to change public image. IE "brainwashing", kind of like what they did for the hitler youth and whatnot. essentially it really isn't changing history because it isn't on a mass scale, but it was on a pretty mass scale in terms of the whole country. of course that doesn't mean that everyone was convinced of it. but it doesn't remove the fact otherwise in the moment.

When we consult the 4th dimension we can see what is really real to our point on 5th.

Just because it's so far removed from how we perceive reality that it's not the easiest concept to word out unless you have further education on the matter and I do not sadly.

If you cut your finger off, are you still considered you? At what point are you not yourself anymore? It's a mind-***, but interesting to talk about. Especially for druggies lol. and i do agree it is fun. multiverse theory has always intrigued me. and the *** doors of perceptions and all that jazzarazzamataz. Multiverse is what I believe. That if you travel to the past or future you don't change your time line but in some way creat a new one. Wish I'd live long enough to see it who know the gov will never tell us of a time machine I think lol Ramuh.Vinvv said: I actually wasn't referring to Plato-style epistemology and the concept of universal Truth, I was referring to what I bolded.

Er, ok then. ^^ Yes, you can change people's minds and their perceptions of history. /agreed LOL So maybe not Plato, then, but Abe Lincoln... http://www.quotationspage.com/quote/27074.html ...LOL.

I guess we have our foolish ideas for every decade. Are eggs good for you again? It's possible to go back in time. Everytime you run up on a PLD/WAR wearing an earth staff and jelly ring, 2005 waves hello.

edit: Ohsnap.. didnt see there was this many pages :p Cerberus.Kvazz said: Travel to the future for sure, the past is gonna be harder <_> edit: Ohsnap.. didnt see there was this many pages :p Take a trip out of futurama. Travel to the end of time, watch the universe collapse.. Then watch it all repeat untill you've reached the appropriate time in the past. miss it by several days, travel all the way round again. Lakshmi.Mabrook said: Ramuh.Vinvv said: why do you think that I'm always out to get ya? funny to think so IMO. I don't take it personal if that's what you mean, it's just I find it funny you always disregard anything someone says into a negative light like they're out to personally prove you wrong or the other way around? Either that or you hate the concept of not being the coolest kid on the block without a mind of your own so you take other people's comments out of context and try to indulge them as your own. Kinda annoying that type of mentality is all I'm saying. ofc you're reply will be something along the lines of why do you think that about me? Please, you're not that great of a physiologist lol. /posts definition of physiologist :D I dunno what exactly you are referring to with the negative light stuff. Maybe I'm just a negative person...hell if I know. I'm not entirely sure what you are referring to in this(bolded) but I would be curious to see an example since I'm kinda bored. since i am bored I'll just look through this thread for example as I like to look for such things if one must pose faults. Megatron or w/e mentions the butterfly effect which conflicted with what I believe, so I spoke as to why I didn't like it. Maybe I don't word things out in the nicest way possible or just to be out there as you do. I think you might just take me too seriously, or not seriously enough. If you don't agree with what I say, just explain to me as to why you don't rather than just bitching about how evil I am and how much I try to be contrarian at any given moment. Situational is situational. Lakshmi.Mabrook said: I'm not that simple minded to imply someone is evil or good, nor do I judge people with that type of simplicity. I suppose what I said is a bit too rash and compressed, but you have think skin and can handle the pressure lol. Also, Ramuh.Vinvv said: the physiologist part was pretty lol though psych=brain phys-physical=body i tend to break thing down to the root word to comprehend em. works out for the most part. when this baby hits 88 mph we are going to see some serious ***

Backwards time travel probably isn't likely. Unless you believe in a universe-wide conspiracy theory, someone from the future would have already come back and told us.
