Heilafóður. Þið hafið bara gott af svona pælingum og enn
betra er að þetta er á ensku, ég dirfist allavega ekki til að þýða,
er frábært eins og það er :)

Destiny Time Theory: If time travel is possible, it is only
because changing the past is impossible.

Chaos theory, my friend. Chaos. Even if the slightest particle
is disturbed, it will affect small reactions which will in turn
affect larger ones. Pseudo-random variations would change,
inevitably altering history, unless you didn't go very far back.
Thus, the only way to logically justify time travelis by allowing
that anything done in the past will affect and therefore cause
the present events which brought it about. Such a
self-supporting circumstance could be called a foreign loop,
something that could not have happened without causing
itself. The Terminator is a good example of Destiny Time and
foreign loops, except that the future, according to Reese, can
be changed.

Parallel Dimension Divergence Theory: “Parallel” universes
are basically understood as universes similar to our own, but
in which some event was changed at a certain time, thus
causing the universe to diverge from ours. The divergence
point, the point in time at which the universes separated,
cannot intersect a foreign loop caused by time travel within
both universes.

Allow me to illustrate: Two dimensions. Time traveler arrives
in both, affecting their history. Before the time traveler leaves
the future to enter the past, the two universes diverge. By
chaos theory (small changes cause big changes), the
divergence would alter the events leading up to the time travel
in the second universe. Therefore, in the second universe, the
time traveler would never have existed at all, or would not have
moved through time, or would have affected time in a different
way. Then, the events leading up to the divergence itself are
changed, and the divergence could not have happened! We
now have a paradox. Even though the Destiny Time Theory
prevents paradoxes in its own universe, across two universes
it has different effects.

To avoid the paradox, the divergence point would have to be
after the time traveler's departure from the future, essentially
meaning that nothing can be changed nothing until before the
foreign loop appears (the time traveler's arrival in the past) or
after the loop is resolved (the time traveler's departure into the
past).

Note, though, that if the time traveler moves into the future,
none of this applies to that particular trip. So if a time traveler
goes back and returns to some point afterward, a divergence
point could occur at any of three places: 1. Before the time
traveler arrives in the past, 2.After the time traveler leaves to
go back to the past, but before his return, or 3. After the time
traveler's return to the future.

Absolute Position Theory: For time travel or interdimensional
travel to be possible, there must either be a way of gauging
absolute position in both times/universes or a series of
nth-dimensionally stable relative points connecting the two
existences.

Because of relativity, we have no way of knowing exactly where
the Earth is in space. No clue. No grid coordinates or
anything. Not knowing that, we have no way of knowing where
it was five years ago, except in relation to everything else.
Thus, either we have to know exactly (absolutely) where we're
going in order to travel through time or dimensions, or we
don't have to worry about it at all and we'll arrive safely, if
possible.
