TTTP6 The future is not set so therefore can be changed freely

This theory assumes the future can be easily changed and the actions in the past reflect in the future. This means if a time traveller travels back in time any change he makes is reflected in the future. His own life is unaffected. This means if a time traveller goes back in time and causes events which would cause his reality and his time to be changed, he could effetely kill himself. The world does not have a set timeline and the line is variable. An example, a young man wants to go back in time to give his earlier self the lottery numbers. He goes back in time and meets himself. He then tells himself that he has the lottery numbers and gives them to him. His earlier self places the numbers and wins the lottery. The time traveller returns to his time and sees a version and reality of himself where he won the lottery. Because this version of himself would have no reason to go back in time he is not that person. Even if the other version of him did realise he would need to close the loop he would still not be that person. He has effectively killed himself. His time line has been removed and he is now an “extra” or copy.

Using this logic it would be safe to presume very little actions can cause the time travellers time line to be removed. But due to the actions not causing a paradox it would seem safer to time travel in this theory than some others. But here is another example; a female doctor wants to go back in time to see dinosaurs, she goes back in time and takes some photos using her camera. She then gets disturbed and drops her camera. The camera contains man made items which could be poisonous to the animals at that time. The woman may have also had a cold or illness that could have caused damage. These actions could be enough to change the course of time.

Basically every action the traveller does cause direct changes to the future he is from. The traveller could go back in time and kill his mother or father before he was born and returning to his time he would see the world as if he was never born. But now because time is not set and the time line has changed it is possible for him to fix it. He can go back in time and kill himself before he killed his mother and father without changing time or killing himself now. As for every change he makes is only reflected in the future. His life cannot be changed because he is the one that is causing the problems.

His life line has done and has seen and has been created he cannot change that. What he knows and what he is cannot be changed by time travel unless someone else changes it. He can go back in time one minute and kill his earlier self without changing anything. He would effectively create a copy of himself as he did not die one minute ago so he is still there. But there is still the body of the person who did die 1 minute ago.

The next theory uses the similar logic as this one but is very much based around each single person’s actions. The next theory is called TTTP7 Revisit ones own timeline.

Mind eye Lucid dream

Having read about mind eye on Wikipedia the ability to picture virtualised picture in one’s mind, I fell asleep thinking of walking around talking to people and talking about playing a first person shooting game but in my mind. This some how managed to pass into my dream. I was dreaming I was dreaming. This is the first time I have not had to realise I was dreaming to become lucid. I was walking around making people pop up out of no where. I then forgot I was dreaming and started walking around thinking I was talking to my mates and stuff. It was then I remembered that I had dreamt I was in the past and noticed I was still there. I was then in my house and had to go up stairs I then realised I was still dreaming as the stairs had carpet where as in reality they are just wooden. I then flew up the stairs and then out of my bedroom window. After flying around a bit I realised I was dreaming and have dreamt of flying before. It was then I thought what the people of the city would look like during my dream. I thought my brain can only invent so many faces and styles. Like in a computer game when the public start repeating. I flew down and started to walk around Twickenham. The public looked normal there were women with babies, women wearing dresses, women jogging. It was then I realised there was only women. I had created a world where there was little to no men.

There were a few men a friend of mine from ages ago, a guy I met the other day and few other people. There were no men I did not know. I had also created only good looking women. There were no young girls or old ladies just good looking 18 to 40 year old women. Allowing this to be read by all ages I will not go into detail but I could also talk and get the women to do pretty much anything I wanted. I then got bored and went home to see what my house looked like. Everything looked normal and acted normal my mum knocked on the door so I let her in and pretty much seem normal. I then had a false awakening and woke up on my sofa. I laid there to try to remember the dream I had and thought what an interesting dream. I then went over to the stairs and they were the normal wooden stairs and went to the toilet it was then I noticed I was not dressed. This was kind of weird as I felt like I was dressed when I woke up. This confusion caused me to wake up for real in my bed. I then laid there and tried to remember as much as I could before failing back to sleep.

What I feel makes this dream interesting is that I could create anything I wanted and could cause people in my dream to do the actions I wanted them to. From a young males point of view this dream could have some very amazing advantages seeing that in a dream it feels real. To me I still think the most amazing part of lucid dreams is the ability to fly and move things with my mind, both cannot be done in real life well maybe it is possible but not done yet.

Your other conscious self

Every felt sure you did not do something because you cannot remember it or that you cannot picture yourself having done it? Well I have not but I feel we are taking for granted our own memory. We use our own memory to relate current events to past events. What if we have move than one conscious mind and every action that other part of you does your main side cannot remember it. Think about this how much of yesterday can you remember? Sure you can remember most of it and unless the other side of you is just doing the boring stuff there is no need to worry. But what if this could become to grow and gain more control.

Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is a story I am sure you are aware of. The story is of a doctor who takes a medicine that causes his bad side to take control over him. I have always been interested in the idea of taking something and experiencing another mind set. This I feel is not the same though and what I am talking about is taking something to completely change who you are. Your unconscious mind may be working in the back of your mind and learning stuff completely different to the way you are. A quote from a page on Wikipedia “Unconscious Mind” has “The conscious mind is hundreds of milliseconds behind the unconscious processes”. This does not mean that the unconscious mind has anything of control over the conscious mind but what I feel it does mean is that the unconscious mind can get away with stuff with out the conscious mind knowing. Let me give an example, the unconscious mind of a young male takes over and causes him pick up a pen. The next stage would be the mind analysing it and the conscious mind taking the blame.

But what if the unconscious mind could really take over? What if it could take over the memory of a person? Another example, a young male picks up a knife and stabs someone the unconscious mind then deletes the memory of that action. The male now unaware of what he has done would act completely different to a person who knew he had killed someone. The young male would even pass lie tests because he would believe he had not done it. This is a bit much but the point is clear. If the unconscious mind could take over the mind of the conscious mind there could be trouble.

One big argument would be that if the unconscious mind did take over there would be time gaps as well as not remembering where one person was. This cannot really be explained with out going a little more unbelievable, and saying that the unconscious mind could control the feelings of being unsure as well as removing memories. If the unconscious mind could invent memories it could be worse. Like having memories of committing crimes you did not do. It is clear this is a theory that is not easily believed but I feel given that it could be impossible to know it was happening to you shouldn’t that cause some thoughts about this?

Invisible worlds

This theory is a kind of like my earlier time travel into the future post but does not feature time travel. What if there are worlds around us that we are simply unable to see. This would mean maybe the reason for people to see ghosts is because they are in our world. What if this world is part of lots of worlds and by worlds? This theory assumes that the universe is like a crossroads with another universe going through it. There world cannot see us and we cannot see them.

The idea of it explaining ghosts is because maybe at some point we do see them or what looks like something. Another theory could be that earth is fixed and there are lots of different versions of life all living on it at the same time but in a different way. Such as an example which with this theory is very hard to make an example but here goes, we are living on earth is a world where humans rule, there are other worlds where other beings rule the world. They are all played out on our earth all at the same time, but we are unable to see them because of the way it works. Think of how a computer multitasks. Each window has different things happening but all running on the same computer. This is not the life on another planet; this is a theory where multiple possible worlds are played out all at the same time all in the same place. They just somehow do not know about each other. The reason we do not know about the other words relays solely in the design of the universe. This could also explain the lack of life on other planets due to there not needing to be live on other planets for the design of this universe to work.

This theory is very confusing even for me to write it and I am sorry if people do not understand it.

TTTF1 The copied traveller

In case you have forgotten TTTF1 = Time Travel Theory Future 1. This theory can work for travelling to the past as well but I feel it would be best to start travelling into the future.

This theory assumes everything is set and time travel was not meant to be possible but is. This theory assumes that if a traveller travels into the future he or she could see their own outcome but would be powerless to affect anything. This theory assumes that if a time traveller travels in time he or she will forever be lost. This is how it works, example, a time traveller wants to go into the future to get the lottery numbers, the traveller sets the machine to the following Saturday and sets off. The traveller to be careful not to bump into the future version makes sure to go somewhere they are unlikely to be. The traveller views the numbers and goes back to their time. The traveller then enters a world where there is two of the traveller, the other traveller being a copy of the earlier equal.

This is because time enters a dimension that is not available in this world. The traveller cannot enter this dimension and if he or she does they would disappear with out leaving any trace. This basically assumes the universe would not be able to cope with the loss of something to that dimension so it creates a copy or prevents it from happening. The fact it is successful does not matter, from everyone in the universe the traveller would just disappear. So to cope with the loss the universe creates a copy. So there are now two of the traveller one that is travelling and one that would just think it did not work.

So back to the example the traveller as now just seen that there is a copy or clone. The traveller would be more shocked to see the traveller believes that it is not possible to travel. He or she may even travel several times because of this. So the traveller tries to tell the copy when they realise they are only a clone and only able to see but not been seen or change anything forever stuck in time unable to change or effect anything. This theory is quite scary in that there may be loads of copies all stuck unable to do anything. The time travel would however be able to travel into the future and see possible solutions to their problem.

Now this theory does have holes such as if this traveller is now stuck he or she would be unable to touch anything and although people may be able to believe that, the fact of the floor is a issue such as, wear and tear of the floor, stairs etc. As well as not being able to eat or drink. One possible theory to solve this problem without changing the theory too much is that the traveller can move objects, eat, open doors, etc. This may even answer the theory of ghosts but that assumes someone as managed this already. Another theory would be that because this person would not truly exist his or her changes would not continue. If this is true then if a stuck traveller went to eat an apple the apple would be eaten but the apple would still exist where he or she picked it up, creating another copy. The same could go for doors if he or she opens a door the door would open but would still be closed to those in the unstuck world.

Another theory is that they would have “no clip” (a video game mode) where by the traveller could walk through walls and fly etc. If this is true then the problem of eating would still be present and they would have until they die of hunger.

This could mean that time travel would be seen as a failed attempt and no one would try it anymore. This does however mean all the failed attempts would create copies. The next theory of travelling into the future will be TTTF2 the disappearing traveller.

18th of September Update

I start University on Tuesday my second year. This means I will have less time to think of random things. This and that fact few and few people are viewing my site or at least telling me they are. I do not believe putting a view counter will be a good idea. I know that not many people view my site but seeing a small number every week may cause depression. I used to get opinions from a lot of people and now get the odd one or two. I know some people are waiting for my entry into science fiction and I feel I should provide an update for that. I find it very hard to write science fiction and stories I do not read. Therefore I am likely to have lots of gammier mistakes. Tonight however someone told me about a book called Moon People by Dale M. Courtney, the story is not important yet (I have ordered a copy), what most people will find about on the internet is how badly wrote the book is. This has changed my opinion on me writing science fiction. I believe now if I can think up something (I have started something) it does not matter how badly written as long as people can understand it. Before I had the opinion if it’s worth writing about it is worth writing well.

The science fiction story I have started is set in the future in a time when time travel is available for education. The story is more an example and talks about problems that people could face with time travel such as, going back and changing the past or going forward to get the lottery numbers. I have no date when I will release it and I hope I can finish it. At the moment it is only 347 words long and does require a lot more.

One other comment I did get though regarding time travel is I don’t know if you remember but when I started my time travel into the past theories which in case you haven’t noticed are released once a month, I said I would also talk about travel into the future. I was talking to someone about a theory the other day and feel it would be a good start. I will try and have the time travel into the future theory up before Monday so that it does not affect the normal Monday post.

I really did not want this blog to be me talking random stuff but feel updates are needed. Enjoy your Friday!!

Greek mythology

Having watched Troy (2004) staring Brad Pitt last night it occurred to me that current day are blanking out the Greek religion as just myths by calling it a mythology. I also thought why is it called mythology at all and not another religion? If we called Christianity a mythology because they believe and study myths around a book wrote ages ago people would not like it.

Having looked up the word mythology it “sometimes refers to the study of myths and sometimes refers to a body of myths” (Wikipedia). Then the more interesting quote that answered my question of why it is not classed as a religion “whereas Greek mythology is the body of myths from ancient Greece. The term ‘myth’ is often used colloquially to refer to a false story; however, the academic use of the term generally does not refer to truth or falsity.” So how I understand that is although mythology it sometimes used to study false or made up myths such as movie mythology. It is used in an academic use as the myths around Greece at that time.

But this still does mean one thing. This was a religion that predates Christianity and talks about a different God and Gods than most religions today. I then thought how did the Greek mythology fed away? I found another Wikipedia quote “The widespread adoption of Christianity did not curb the popularity of the myths. With the rediscovery of classical antiquity in the Renaissance, the poetry of Ovid became a major influence on the imagination of poets, dramatists, musicians and artists”. So when Christianity began it was already classed as myths. The date of Greek mythology again from Wikipedia dates “from c. 900-800 BC onward.” This means if the whole of Christianity did for some reason get wiped out and lost (nuclear war, virus outbreak etc), it could be classed as mythology of old mankind by the year 2800.

The mirror world

Ever looked into the mirror and seen your self and the room behind you and wondered if it was another world or just your own reflection? Maybe not but think about it like this, we look into the mirror and we see our own reflection a fraction of a second delayed. We believe it is our reflection we are seeing and not another world. But what if it was another world what if our actions are the same as another world but that world just has everything backwards? How do we know we are not the reflection our mirror image sees?

Short posts and other optional posts to come

I have been asked whether or not I would be willing to write science fictional stories. These would be kind of like large examples of my theories. At first I said no because I felt it would not fit the site but thinking of it longer I feel it may work. I have a few ideas and I am not sure whether or not I will write any purely because of the amount of time building a story would take me. I am going back to university soon so I don't know what level of work I would need to put in for that. I am also looking for extra work and possibly moving out and all this would cause delays.

I have been told by lots of people some of my theories are too long and take too long to read. The next theory that will be posted at 19:00 tonight will be a short one. This will be the first theory in a week.

Comments are allowed on the site but no one seems to use them. Also the people who talk to me on msn are people I already know. I would like to know if people who don't already know me are looking at my site.
