Everyone always talks about wanting to time travel, but honestly, it'd be completely pointless even if we could. Well, traveling forward would be cool, but backward would be pointless.
Let me break this down in a little thing called the Time Travelers Paradox. (Idk if that's actually a real thing or not) but its something many people overlook or just completely don't understand/think about.

Let's say you can time travel and you can go backward. Alright cool, now where are you gonna go? Let's say we're gonna go to Hitler, and not do anything rash, but we just sit and talk to Hitler and convince him to not try to genocide all the Jews, gays handicap, etc. Now let's go back to the future. Nevermind all of the stuff that's been changed because Hitler didn't become Hitler, let's talk about the fact that the Holocaust now never happened. Thus, you no longer have any reason to go back in time to stop the Holocaust. If there was never a Holocaust for you to go back in time to stop, that means you in the current reality will now never go back in time. Since you never go back in time, you therefore never stop the Holocaust, and now its still happened. And that my friend is what I call the Time Travelers Paradox.

Now also let's talk about Doctor Who since The Doctor fits into the time travel thing. The Doctor can go anywhere and anywhen that he wants. So how come he spends a majority of his time in modern century London?
Like this dude has a TARDIS, and can go anywhere, anywhere and he chooses London. Alright, I'll admit London is cool, but he isn't just stuck in this galaxy you have to understand, he can go anywhere on any planet of any galaxy. His TARDIS also automatically works as a language translator for him so he can speak any language and understand any language. Again not just stuck to earth languages either. So you can automatically be anywhere at any time period on any planet in any galaxy. And he chooses Modern, and occasionally Victoria-era London. Alright, whatever. I guess London reminds him most of Gallifrey, his home planet, or some shit like that. But this isn't the only problem there is in the show.

His compainon he can also choose from anywhere and anywhen. He's already spending his time in Londen, you'd think he'd choose something cool as a companion, but no. His companion is always a British character, usually white women. There's been a couple colored girls and a few guys, but the guys were usually only there because they were the female's boyfriend, or in Amy and Rory's case, soon to be husband. Alright, I guess that makes sense, he needs his companion to blend in with his surroundings, sure. I'll buy into that.

There's also many cases where he hopes to be ginger (but sadly that never works, I think a ginger Doctor would be extremely adorable.) But if he can fight hard enough to break the rules and stay David, why couldn't he fight hard enough and become ginger? The next Doctor they've been promoting is a woman, however, but this is also the 14th Doctor. So after 14 regeneration the show FINALLY decides to spice things up.

Aside from all the Dr. Who info (never watched the show, no idea what's going on) time travel can't exist before the very time machine you're using to travel. If it were a reality rather than a theory, we would find that the "Time Machines" would only be able to take us back as far as the second that they were first turned on, and that's with each respective machine, assuming we make more than 1 once production is underway.
ReplyDeleteThink about it like this: Can you remember anything before you were born?
Neither can computers. Despite the fact that they're extremely complicated, they operate off the same physics that we do. That includes either a biological memory, or a mechanical one. We could possibly artificially recreate those periods of time, maybe in a program to upload to the Time Machine, but we wouldn't be able to alter much of anything, and if we could, it wouldn't have any actual effects since it's just a simulation.
