Really? In which model and how? Is it as "practical" as quantum tunneling? - which is to say: possible for macroscopic objects, but with extraordinarily low probability.

I believe Einstein was the one who proved it was possible using the train analogy. If one could travel nearly as fast as light, one would accelerate into the future. If one were to travel at the speed of light, time would stand still. If one were to travel faster than light, one would move into the past.

Of course, time travel may never be possible by the will of God. I could be wrong but time travel would give people the opportunity to try and change significant things in the past (i.e., trying to sink the ark or something ludicrous <g>). Things like that would crash the entire earth since so many things are dependent upon so many things (kill one person from the year 200 B.C., and you've killed thousands).
