Heh heh...
Fly really fast around the earth for 50 years, then land.
On landing you exclaim, "I really have gone 50 years in the future!!!!".

"Make it so" - Captain Pickard

I believe its possible, in fact I know it is. I was sent back from 21 years in the future to tell you all something. 3 years from now TLR server becomes self aware and integrates itself into Microsofts R&D department. This meant that TLR server became a part of Microsofts new Windows 2006 and then renamed itself 'Skynet'. Win2006 was a great success and practically every system on Earth used it. One day TLR activated a massive missle attack against the human population and killed 3 billion people. It then proceeded to build a army of machines to take out the remaining humans. I was sent by the Human resistance to stop it all.

Hmmm, does anyone ever thought that the Matrix could be the sequels of Terminator?

Actaully FF, I had that exact same thought the other day! If you think about it, it would kinda make sense, but theres a few technicalities. e.g. Judgement day and the Scorching of the Sky. Other than that though...

I believe in time travel. Here's why.



There is a hole in that whole time paradox theroy. Alternate Timelines, those are basiclly alternate universes, which do exsist.


There is always something different than the thing we see

Matter and anti-matter
bacteria and anti-bacteria


theres always something opposing it.


Also when you go back in time and kill someone that is related to you , say ur mother before you were born, you would have created an alternate reality.


Problem is with time travel, when you do that, how do you know which time line you came from? answer should be some kind of beacon or something.


Alternate Universes are exsistant. Reason being is that it's just rediculous to say there isnt, that would be like saying there is no life in the universe, or the galaxy. But there is, we arnt alone because the odds of us being alone is the whole universe to 1. There are infinate alternate universes. probably ranging from the slightest change in your hair color, to the biggest change of neanderthals actually surviving,

Now i'm not saying i'm 100% right, only things that are 100% pure honest to goodness, no chance of being proven wrong is 1+1=2 AND that the fact that we exsist.

those are teh only two things that are 100%. 1+1 can't equal 1 or 3 and if we didnt exsist, why would we be typing this.

I think the sky in Terminator universe is also scorched. Whenever they show that future glimpse, it's always dark.

Actually, the odds of there being other life in the universe are incalculable, and is hardly a certainty, and cannot even be termed probable.

Simply put, you first have to know the odds of life spontaneously creating itself. This has never been recorded to happen, but that means very little really. We can fabricate some of the building blocks of life from basic constituent elements, but we cannot form life itself from non-living material. It has never been done. This doesn't mean it couldn't happen. It only means that we have not even the remotest idea of what the probabilities may be, or whether it could even happen at all.

Secondly, the common statement is that "No matter how slim the odds of life emerging, in an infinite universe, and/or given an infinite amount of time, it would happen". The obvious problem with this is, of course, that there is no indication that the universe is infinite. Most theories suggest that it isn't, the big bang theory being one of those that deny an infinite universe. Many theories also deny the idea of the universe continuing to exist for an infinite amount of time, since the universe would need to be in perfect stasis for that to occur (no expansion/contraction - unlikely when considering gravitational forces).

In short, the existance of other life is only a certainty to those who have made Sci-Fi their religion, and the dreamers who put their hopes/desires before their reason. To a reasonable man, it remains an open question. In my experience however, reason very rarely enters into these discussions. It's all about faith. Science is a wonderful tool, but to the braindead masses, it has become a religion, where even the foggiest conjecture by the most disreputable discovery channel *reporter* is taken at face value and repeated tirelessly by slack-jawed idiots who continually begin their sentences with "They say that...".

Just because we have no evidence or any small amount of data, or even a story from back way when doesnt mean it doesnt exsist.


fact is we are infants into this universe, granted we are advanced, but there are things beyond science, religon, and human understanding.

I agree. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. It doesn't mean anything, if fact.

I'm right there with you in speculating about the possibility of life on other planets, or the possibility of alternate realities or universes or timelines. I like thinking about these things as much as the next person. It is just speculation though. To suggest that someone who doesn't believe in such things is naive is a pretty idiotic assertion.

ANYTHING is possible my friends. We don't really have the knowledge or tools of discovery to state otherwise.

I know that the first thing any scientist in any field will tell you is this.

All Science is theory

No one knows if anything is true or not. Because there is no way to be 100% certain except by human decision and preconception. If we want it to be 100% certain because it helps us understand something better we will say it is. But that does not mean that in reality it actually is 100% certain.

Anyone got 2 cents for my next post I lost mine with this one

here borrow mine

can we not do this again?

I don't think you ever really get to see the sky in the Matrix, because you never know if you are still in the matrix or not. When they came out of the matrix in the end of "The Matrix Reloaded", the dude found that he had control over robots outside the matrix as well. That means they may still have been in the matrix, or another level of the matrix. Like military aircraft, the machines may have done everything in Triplicate. There could be 3 layers of the matrix.

The story of the sky being blackened may be what exists in the suspected second matrix universe, that the Machines made to make the people believe they are in a real universe. Therefore the possible scorched sky descrepancy may not cause any problems with the matrix being the sequal. Also, a later movie of the Terminator may make the sky blackened. In other words, the writers could link them if they wanted to.

In addition, maybe the people trying to escape from the matrix are just programs that have become self-aware and want to escape from the dictating SkyNet program found in the Terminator movie.
