Has anyone ever thought about how God came to be? Don't turn this into a religious debate, but I'm sure we can all agree there has to be some "Creator." Who created the Creator?

This is very true, traveling back in time (if possible) seems more of a reality, than going in the future.

Nope, wrong answer.

If you travel back in time you come from someone's future. Who is to say that we arent someone else's past?

Always wondered that! I had to go to this Sunday school thing on weekdays, and the teacher had an answer to all my religous questions, till I asked her "who created God" She came back with some shit like "He's always been there..." but it wasn't good enough answer. It's kinda like "which came first: the chicken or the egg"

For the sake of arguement - If God wasnt always there, then at some point he came into existance, created or materialized. Then by who, and when, and when did this other being or force that created God come into existance? Big bang? And where did the big bang come from? Nothing? Just, Poof, and it all starts? In the absence of anything else, her answer holds up as well as anything else. That is where the faith part of religion comes from.

Time is the same way. When did it start? Does it really exist or is it just a concept created by man? Is it really linear? If not, it might be possible to skip from point to point. Who knows? Who can prove it one way or the other?

That makes no sense, and contradicts your earlier statement. Try again.

But yo can travel into the future because it doe exist at that point.

If you say hit a wormhole, you travel (in theory) at or above the speed of liget. Here either time is accelerated, meaning that when you come out years would have passed, or, that time slows down for you, but since light years are passing, everything else is moving at the same time and speed. Thus when you come out, only minutes ahve passes for you while years have passed for everyone else. See, were not skipping ahead and leaving this wide open space of nothing. Like its the year 2002 and then I go into a time machine and nothing happens until I arive in 2030. Thats simply not true. What is possible is time accelerating or slowing as you reach the speed of light. Remember time only exists if there is space around it. Time is the 4th dimension, the other 3 dimensions wouldn't exist without time and vice versa.

Truthfully, no one has the right answer. Your not able to disporve my beliefs and ideas and i can't disprove your's. Don't tell me what can and can't happen. That is for me to decide.

we can all sit and debate on this (time travel, not aimbots) and never reach a correct answer because we simply do not know.
however, give me a DMC Delorean and a flux capacitor and i would be willing to give it a try. though i would never give you back the delorean!
