If you had the chance, would you view the events for yourself, to see once and for all what really happened? There's a worm hole open, let's say, that you could look through. Maybe it happened just like you think, maybe it was a bit different, or maybe it was nothing like it.
Would you stick with whatever faith/confidence you have now, or would you check the facts to confirm? Why?
I did a thread on this..

Granted it was sometime ago but the point I made is still valid.
In that we have been treated or brainwashed to accept information is a certain way, almost to the point where we do not question it (Point in case, at how many people were outright shocked over the brexit or the trump win.) While the idea of a time machine or worm hole is impossible the "next best thing" would be how you currently process and accept information. So the real question becomes do we blindly just accept the 'proof' you all have been conditioned to blindly believe... Again look how wrong this process was in just predicting the presidential win! All of this was tangable real world info, and yet it was presented inaccurately.
