Yeah this is what I'm having trouble with.

From what I understand, even if you could 'go into the past' with FTL travel, it still wouldn't from what I understand create this need for an alternate history in which there is another version of events.

I just don't buy it.


But yes, it's rather complicated. I was going to start a thread on annoying paradoxes, I guess that might have got more interest, but I needed a rant about this particular one and to have some other insight into it.


And cheers for the vid Kichi! Smile
