Terrence history does not need to repeat itself. We are talking about time travel here Terrence. If you are willing to stake everything on your faith then you are no better than all those evangelists you like to hound. Time travel violates causality. Nothing has ever been known to precede its cause. How can you be so ... (for the sake of civility I have avoided what follows) as to think that to travel back in time must be possible. This is tantamount to asking for immortality. Sure we can now fly then again birds have been doing for quite a while. Your comparison is no good. Why don't you compare to the search for el dorado or the search for transmutation into gold of every element thru the use of alchemy and you will be much closer to the mark. But even that is different. But really to be so sure that it is going to come about is just madness. And even if I was willing to postulate that it might be possible one day I am no willing to condemn future generations to spiritual starvation until it does. I can not believe I am even discussing this matter with you.
