    There isn't anything to prevent going forward, but you can't go backward. To go back in time, you would have to exceed the speed of light, which is clearly impossible.

    That's Hollywood, Hollywood is always right. And when they're not, the jury is usually too stupid to tell.

    Did you even read it? This guy has a PhD and knows what he's talking about. Read it first. Then judge.

    That just means you suck at MGS3.

    Well now I'm more inclined to believe you/him about time travel being possible.

    Yet, something tells me you still haven't read it. How can you have an opinion on something you haven't read? You don't disbelieve it because you haven't read it. You want to disbelieve it and therefore refuse to read it because you're afraid, by reading it, you'll be forced to reconsider your views on the matter, and that's something you're unwilling or unable to do right now.

    It may not specifically prevent time travel, but special relativity still prevents anything from going faster than light, hence, it prevents one from going back in time. Even the "time portal" only permits travel between two general eras of time; you can't specifically choose a moment to go back to.

    He is right about the prevention of paradoxes, though. If you went through a time portal that goes back to the time your father was alive with the intention of shooting him before you are conceived, it just wouldn't work. Physics wouldn't allow it. Your gun would jam, you would miss, you would accidentally eliminate your dad's prime competitor for your mom, or something like that. Paradoxes just can't happen.

    Hmmmm, what if you traveled to that time for 3 times without knowing but there may be a chance that you would feel déjà vu which would make the paradox possible to happen, there you will shoot the person. But there's no proof to back up this theory or yours anyway. I don't know if it's related to common sense in relation because it contains billions of different thoughts.

    Anyway! Whoever bullies me, I'll use the time freezer... move that person, get it naked and put it on some busy street in a town!

    i'd use the time freezer to work many jobs at a time and make scads of cash...wait...do i age normally while the time freezer is in effect?

    of course i could go forward with time machine and check winning lotto numbers....but that would be unethical right?

    Also, I would probably tell myself to get over it.

    Time freezer, I don't know how that'd be useful really.
    now safe beneath their wisdom, and their feet;
    here i will teach you truly how, to sleep.
