I think if time travel was ever a reality, it could only work to travel to the past. The past is non changing and set in stone. The future is ever changing, each second that passes, the future has changed. There's no way one could travel to what they could expect to be the future when it could shift and change at any fraction of a moment.

Ok…Time travel…yes it is possible because the only time that is, is now, That is not a contradiction of terms, Time is a sequence of events that is recognized as the rotation of the earth from dawn to dusk. Then seasonal variations were notices and there about we discovered the fact that at the same time each day there is a slight change in the height of the sun above or below where it was the previous day and the pattern that was produced by this turned out to be a figure eight pattern…aka infinity symbol. Something else to worship. Going on with this line of discovery the significance of the ticking clock and rocket ship all have their origin. But now we see that perhaps there is a greater adventure that goes beyond the ticking of our clocks in describing the way that moments pass slowly occasionally and more quickly on other occasions. It is as if the passage of events are stretched or compressed. Our curiosity leads us to lean into the issue and attempt to explain what this is about. SiFi blows the field away along with Einstein’s relativity and a deluge of time/space fantasies. If we really seek to know more about time you are going to have to disregard what you have been told time is and what you think it is and discover it on your own in those still moments where all that is waits to remind you of all that is. Time is a distraction from that.

In a sense, we already have time travel with video and still photography. But in the sense that you are presenting it, you can think Einstein.

Nobody knows the answer to this, we can only speculate. I do think its fair to assume that if time travel would ever exist (going into the past) it would be a 'hands off' like an amusement ride, just looking.. Backwards causation.. 'Effects precede their causes' .. This is impossible, even in the future. It would create a terrible paradox. (this one you need to think about to get the meaning, basically it means change one thing, it contradicts with another thing and it grows to out of proportion.. What a mess that would cause, you probably won't even be here now if someone in the future disturbed one leaf on a tree.

I do have a theory though, it coincides with all these UFO sightings.. What if! just what if, 1000 + years in the future, it is discovered that there is a way to travel to the past, just like I said before, an 'amusement ride'.. People could say they want to go back to a certain point in time.. they get on that saucer thingie press a few buttons and year 2011 here we are..

I do not thing 'time travel to the future' is even feasible as it hasn't happened. The past is more manageable as the visuals you see now are reflections of light, this light never dies, it scatters. Modern photography captures this light and stores it, perhaps in the future, we will be able to 'decode this light and play it back. even be part of it..

Many Christians are against anything scientific, they do not even believe we were on the moon, they do not believe in extraterrestrials. Evolution is out, Intelligent Creation is out, time travel is out..

We are here alone as god wanted it, Monkeys are monkeys, fish are fish, there is no correlation between living things here on earth. God made man and made animals for man to eat and work. That's the way it is. Time travel?

Disclaimer: Not all Christians fit this stereotyping, there are many reasonable christians that are open to suggestion, I know my wife's family, bible thumpin southern Pentecostal are closed to science.. Its all in the bible. There's no mention of Time travel in the bible.. so there's clearly no chance of it ever coming to be.. And a monkee will always be a monkey.

people seem to forget how space and time are linked. You cannot affect one without the effect being felt in tne other!
To return to yesterday involves a physical return to where the earth was yesterday with regard to the movements of the solar system and our galaxy. beleive it when I say that our planet is a long from where it was yesterday. The forward motion of yesterdays planet to todays position is the pecise result of gravitational and momentum forces (combined with masses and and a plethora of other energies)and a whole pile of other stuff. With respect to the butterfly effect adding your own mass, or possibly even the energy involved in just observing yesterday, will change the equation! different energy = different day = different future
remember the famous axiom
Time stops every event from happening at once and space stops all events from happening at the one spot
