Azz, I think you’re forgetting that we’re the ones that will look after you when you’re old :D

On the whole philosiphical thing, I believe that what we percieve is real because I have no reason to doubt it. Although I did go through a stage of questioning after I watched The Matrix!

Time travel is not possible as time itself doesn’t exist. Not in the fixed sense that we perceive it anyway.

If we were able to change past events it would not alter the present. People from now would still recall the events as they remember them, you would only change events on a dimensional linear tangent.

To really screw the whole theory up;
If you believe in the fixed ideal of time - ie: the tick, tick, tick of a clock we are all traveling through time.
But this does not exist, time is irrelevant and fluid - it slows, speeds up, the past exists now as well as all future events which are evident in the present. Our perception exists not in the reality of now, we exist a second or so in the future while living in the past of our memory while reality remains hidden behind a veil of illusion.

The past is always being altered to change the present by those that write about history.

I think i’ve contradicted myself enough for one post.


If I could alter the past I would not have gone to Cairns and I’m doing my best to alter that reality in my head

“I like when they say a movie is inspired by a true story. That’s kind of silly. ‘Hey, Mitch, did you hear that story about that lady who drove her car into the lake with her kids and they all drowned?’ ‘Yeah, I did, and you know what — that inspires me to write a movie about a gorilla!’”

But nah, as Rene Descartes said himself; ‘Congito Ergo Sum’ translated into ‘I think therefore I am’ Proving his and everyone else’s existence.
