I found this on another forum and its pretty interesting.. what do you people think?

QUOTE
Basically, the scenario was that I wished that I had never wished for something.

Now, would wishing to have never wished for the previous wish create another dimension, or simply destroy everything that existed beyond that point, and start from that point, or rewrite the point in time that is now "blank"

I understand that if you go back in time to, lets say, kill yourself, you wouldn't have been able to kill yourself, so you have infinite recursion, or simpll a dimensional breaking point.

And if you travel into the future, you simply don't exist, and if you travel into the past 2 seconds earlier, and keep doing that, you can create matter from nothing, which is pretty cool...

So with the wish... how does it work? lol


Read and think carefully anyone.. I wouldn't be surprised if this gives you headaches... blink.gif

it affects them, but because of the distances, and stuff. it's not that great.

the effects are not apparent on a large scale.

but it's like the butterfly effect.

when you turn on the camera, it abosorbs photons. instead of reflecting them. so there are less photons coming from the direction of the camera, a mininal difference, but yes a difference.

say these photons would have hit the person's skin, oh, by them selves, not at all harmful. but the straw that breaks the camel's back. they push the total photons to the point that the person now gets cancer. so if the camera is on, the person gets skin cancer a few seconds later.

not a big deal, you say, and it isn't, yet.
so now they had cancer a second later, but it just happens that a second later the subject has turned. how the cancer has formed on face, not arm. you have changed this.

the cancer on the arm would show as a mole first. not a big deal, not something you'd go to the doctor for. but the mole on the face, that's a big deal. so the subject goes to the doctor to see about it, and get's it removed.

so if you'd never turned on the camera, they would have had skin cancer on thier arm, causing thme to die. because you turned on the camera, they live.


it's a strech tho. effects that big, like someone's life, take a long time to happen.


think of time as a fabric. it you were to break a thread somewhere, no big deal. but as time passes, it forms a hole that gets bigger and bigger.
