Why Time Travel Is Impossible

I was on the 'can' doing what I always do there; provocative philosophical thinking, and I noticed something in my magazine. There was an ad for a book that was titled, "What If Jesus Was Never Born?" or something like that. And I got thinking of what if our Savior was never born, or was born years later. How would the world be different? What if we created a time machine and the devil went back in time and kill baby Jesus. WOW! What ramifications that would have! So then I started contemplating the idea of time travel, is it possible? Can I go back and not have made an idiot of myself on that date? Could I have stopped the planes from hitting the Twin Towers on 9-11? What if, what if? My conclusion to all these questions was, no. And let me explain.

For time travel to be possible God would have to be able to do it, right? God would have to want to and have a need to. But for God to have that want or need to time travel it would have to be for a purpose of correcting the past. Why? Because God had the whole world planned and thought of from day 1 and before that, before the creation of the Universe. He knew where I would be and what I would be doing today a million years ago. So since God knew all this from the beginning, for him to correct it would require a mistake and or a lack of knowledge on his part, which would contradict His divinity. God doesn't make mistakes or have a lack of knowledge; if he did he wouldn't be God. So by this circular assessment we know that God cannot through his divinity time travel into the past because it would go against his perfection. For him to go back he would need a reason and that reason would contradict his Holiness.

Now some skeptics will say that we can do things God can't do, i.e. Sin. But that's not the same and in no way does this impede his omnipotence. Man can sin but God can't for the same reason he can't time travel. God can't do these things not cause he's stopping Himself, but because He is Holly and Holly cannot sin. It's like trying to create a round triangle, it just can't be done. And we can't time travel just because God allow for it to happen. He planned it all, and He's not going to let us ‘Man' screw it up.

Now for argument sake when I say time travel I'm referring only to traveling to the past, not the future. Though we know some of the future through God's revelation to a few people like John and the other prophets, they did not nor could they travel to the future to affect the outcome. They were just given a vision, that's all. So I am just referring to time traveling to the past. We cannot affect what has not yet occurred. We can only be shown through prophecies of what is to come.

Now there are other reasons why time travel is impossible other than it contradicting God's divinity. One, if we could go into the past what would stop Satan from going there and killing the baby Jesus to stop the messiah from coming. God would not in anyways allow for that to happen.

Also time is linear and for time travel to be possible it would have to be non linear. But then you get into the whole ‘space time continuum' debate. Which I know nothing about.

So there you have it. A short but powerful argument for why time travel is impossible. I know not many will argue with the logistics of it; any logical thinker will come to the same conclusion. They only might argue the theological aspect of it. But I just wanted to bring that theological view to it so that's why I'm writing.

And as for those dreamers out there who wish to relive high school, I want to apologies that I had to pop your bubble and bring you back to reality.

Thank You

I send out a special Thank You to all those who have died for Freedom and for those still fighting.

Gun Control And Parenting

Gun control begins and ends in the home. What that means is parents; it is your responsibility to teach your children proper gun safety, not the governments. If your child finds a gun and shoot someone or themselves its not the governments fault for not teaching them or keeping the gun away, no, its your fault. Its not the fault of the manufacturer of the gun for making the firearm, its the parents fault. Parents, the same responsibility you have to teach your children right from wrong is endowed to you to teach them to be safe and responsible people around guns. Teach your children that guns are not toys, that they must be respected. Teach them that if they find a gun to get an adult. Teach them that guns are not evil but that people are and that they must be ready to protect themselves when they're old enough. It comes down to personal responsibility. Yes, a 5 year old isn't going to understand the dynamics of the human freewill, but they do understand that if they see something they aren't to touch then they wont. Its about being a good parent and being there for your child. Now I'm not talking to the good parents out there, you are doing a good job. I'm talking to the parents who think government programs are the best way to raise their kids. I'm talking to the parents that think if they take every inanimate object they deem 'evil' in this world and destroy it then their child will be safe. But you know what, that is impossible. This worlds a scary place to be, and the faster you teach your child to handle this world and not hide them from it the better off and well rounded they'll be.

Hitler Rises Again

Iran is close to passing a law that would require Jews and Christians to wear badges reminiscent of the Holocaust. Iran's President, Ali Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying that the Holocaust is a 'myth' and he has called for Israel to be "wiped off the map."

Iran and it's leaders are a terrible threat to not just Israel, but the entire World. No one thought Hitler was a big threat until it was too late. We cannot take this treat lightly, we must act quickly. If the good people of Iran won't stand up against their evil rulers then the U.S. MUST! "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." -Edmund Burke.

Election Time Woes

The reason why we keep electing one bad person after another is that we are voting based on such small knowledge of the candidate. Knowledge that comes from the TV ads and media reports. That is just not enough information to elect anybody with.

What do I mean? Here is California we are replacing the 50th Congressional seat after the incumbent, Randy 'Duke' Cunningham was convicted of many federal offenses for bribery and like acts. So we responsible citizens must choose who should fill this now vacant seat so we can continue to be represented in the House. But as we get closer to Election Day all I see is mudslinging ads against each candidate by each political party and the people running, it's nauseating. One person says the other is a lobbyist, who then fights back by calling the opponent an extreme liberal, and it keeps goes back and forth. Not that the ads are wrong, but it still doesn't give me any pertinent information to which would convince me candidate A is better than candidate B. I just think that media and greed have defiled the democratic process of electing the right person for the right job and all we're doing when we vote is choosing the lesser of two evils. Brian Bilbray, the leading Republican candidate for the vacant seat say's he a conservative, but certain things have shown him to be just as liberal as his Democrat opponent, Francine Busby. So I don't know. I've almost reached a point where I'm damned if I vote, and I'm damned if I don't. In fact, I think the only thing keeping my immaculate voting record this year is the propositions, I want to vote for those. Even though none of my votes have ever gone the way I voted. For some reason the majority of Californian's want to make things harder and raise taxes for us. But as an American I shouldn't let go of my constitutional right just because it's futile and fatiguing.

And I'm not saying that this election is one out of a million, all elections that I've voted in, and many before that were just as bad as this one. The only thing that makes this one stand out is that I'm finally getting tired of it. The way things should be if it were a perfect democracy is that the people elect the better person based on their morals and wisdom and faithfulness to the constitution, not based on what they'll do for just the Republicans or just what they'll do for the Democrats, but for all. But I can see how that's a little hard when our nation is so obviously divided on both morals and wisdom.

A New Sheriff In Town

Just a reminder for those in San Diego county, this man is the best candidate for Sheriff. Please vote for him! San Diego needs a better man.

California Students Too Stupid

Whaaa whaaa whaaa! California high school students are such babies. I stand by my statement that California is the worst state in the Union.

The California High School Exit Exam is a test given to all high school students as a requirement for graduation; they must pass it to be given a diploma. But now a judge in Oakland California earlier this week found that the exam is "unconstitutional" citing that it discriminates against the poor and non-English speaking student. This ruling will blocks the state from its plan to deny diplomas to the students that didn't pass the exam.

Ok, lets get something straight, if you go to public school, then you are expected to learn! The taxpayer's money is going towards your education. And if you cannot prove after 12 years of this education that you didn't learn anything then you are a waste of money and space in this nation. In a better school system the student's grades should speak for itself. If A's meant anything then there would be no need for this exam. But the degrading education system in California has forced the state to prove that the taxpayer's money isn't going to waste. How dare these students and parents sue because they can't pass the exam. It's "discriminating" Oh boo hoo hoo! Since our Constitution is written in English and our money is printed in English shouldn't our students be taught in English? Hey Paco, if your son can't read or speak English that's not our fault! "But we're too poor to get an edimikation." The state is providing a FREE education, that's the point! It doesn't take money to read out of a state provided book or write with a state provided pencil! Unless you're severely disabled or the teacher isn't doing their job there is no excuse for any California high school student not to pass this test. I asked someone who took the test, my little brother how hard the test was since he had to take it. He said it was the easiest of all the state tests he ever took. Now given my brother does speak English, comes from a middle-class family and who's father would come down on him if he didn't pass his classes. Even with all those obstacles he still found the exam easy enough to pass. So why can't other students pass it?

I just get mad at stupid things like this. You know what the only lesson here learned is?  What has been taught to our youth here is that if something is too hard to do then just sue until the standards are dropped to an unacceptable level and you feel better about yourself. It's horrible.

Isreal Needs To Start Kicking Some Butt!

TEHRAN, Iran - A top Revolutionary Guards commander said Tuesday that Israel would be Iran's first retaliatory target in response to any U.S. attack, a provocative threat that reinforced the Iranian president's past call for Israel to be "wiped off the map."

"We have announced that wherever (in Iran) America does make any mischief, the first place we target will be Israel," the Iranian Student News Agency quoted Gen. Mohammad Ebrahim Dehghani as saying.

Dehghani, a top commander of the elite Revolutionary Guards, also said Israel was not prepared to go to war against Iran.
