Why Going Faster Than Light Leads to Time Paradoxes

Cool Worlds writes “Is faster-than-light (FTL) travel possible? In most discussions of this, we get hung up on the physics of particular ideas, such as wormholes or warp drives.

But today, we take a more zoomed out approach that addresses all FTL propulsion – as well as FTL messaging. Because it turns out that they all allow for time travel. Join us today as we explore why this is so and the profound consequences that ensue.

    Are cryptid creatures or strange entities being seen as a sign of things that are increasingly on the rise, or are they a wake up call to spank us back into the reality of where we shouldn’t go poking around?
    There are some people on this planet who don’t know a thing about electronics or technology. They’ve never been to a city, never stepped on carpeting and are still living off what nature provides by using their wisdom of it…..while on the other hand there are groups who have long ago surpassed the splitting of the unseen atom (atomic bomb), invented nuclear power, spliced and manipulated DNA, built particle colliders to create worm holes and/or black holes through which who knows what will travel…it’s hard to fathom all the weird science out there.
    Common sense tells me there is no way to have any safeguards against the potential catastrophic fallout from sciences (of which we don’t fully understand) we are getting into. We have used science sometimes for good, but it seems to me it was usually in correcting the aftermath of our own previous mistakes, but time was needed to correct those mistakes….even in this day and age with all we are capable of we weren’t able to prevent a virus from spreading before it got out of control….for crying out loud…it worries me to think that there are potentially much more dangerous viruses locked down in storage somewhere that we haven’t been informed of or have a cure for or plan of action yet.
    This may just be your wake up call…if you think about it…if through any course in human history (even a million years into the future), time travel is real or time is manipulated…how can it not be affecting us right now?
    Now you may think I’m nutty with this theory…but what if time naturally has to be seamless, and when interrupted or altered it has to right itself by rewriting the past to fit smoothly into the new altered outcome of what will be…so in real time as we experience it the time-line usually makes sense and flows naturally, but in actuality it is subject to change and has indeed had changes to it….in time this will make sense ???? …this may account for the Mandella effect, missing time, parallel dimensions and possibly more.
    Sasquatch may potentially be us in the future…..it may also be the residue of a take back on an altered time-line experiment for the purpose of de-evolving or re-evolving the human species to something more in tune with nature that won’t destroy itself or the planet…it’s a reach…or is it?
    What if this time thing is like having what should’ve just been a jar of good ole natural peanut butter but someone in the future screwed it up and made it aweful or something like poop….it’s like the time-line disperses small amounts of poop throughout the past into the peanut butter of time because it’s outcome is to just majorly become only the poo….feel free to use jelly or or any two of your favorite ingredients if you are an optimist…in my case with all the strangeness I’ve experienced, some days it feels like someone snuck some crushed nuts in my jam and they’re telling me it’s still just plain jelly ????
    So what is our outcome and where are we going? Have you noticed the world has changed dramatically at an increasing rapid pace just in YOUR lifetime, let alone just a few hundred years? Could time alterations or a time traveler in the future come back and advanced or leaked technology to put us on a path for ones gain for security, for power?
    All of this is too much to wonder about…..IMO (take it or leave it), I say even if you aren’t religious it might not be a bad idea to ask the universe or god to step in for some help on this matter that we don’t seem to have any control over, especially if someone is making alterations of time using science…..seriously, why would you mess with time unnaturaly when you can make things better with small actions in the here and now today?
    If you want to, take a minute to wish that we all have the opportunity to better ourselves, help each other and our planet, I guarantee if you pick up a piece of trash you normally wouldn’t and throw it away (and wash your hands) it’s gonna feel like you just gave bragging rights to your soul….can you conceive if we all did that and how much nicer everything would be or how good you would feel in the faith of humanity seeing someone doing a good deed?….positive actions,positive prayers or thinking…it’ll do you and those around you some good today and also in time…have faith in the light and I think we just might conquer the darkness……Peace and love to everyone
