I like the infinite universe theory. Nothing as mind boggling as quantum leaping from the chair im sitting in now which is brown and black to another universe where it is purple and blue and that is the only difference between the two universes.

That is the age old question.

Some would say that you can't change your destiny, and that if someone could see the future, that future would happen no matter what you did to avoid it.

However, like you said, if I see the future and I change it, how can it be the future? Somewhat like the Grandfather Paradox.

Some people will also talk of an infinite number of parrallel universes where every possibility is worked out.[/quote:6d10d]Yes, I was racking my brain about that question too. Now follow me. Alright, i am from teh future, and I want to travel back to save a guy who dies. So i travel back, to save him, I was meant to travel back and save him and because i tried to save him he ended up dieing. And if i didnt travel back because i wanted him to live, he would die anyway, because i was meant to think that and not try to save him for fear of killing him, and therefore hed be dead anyway... I hope i didnt loose anyone lol.
