TransporterMalfunction 1 Posted February 29, 2004 If I had the ability to go back in time with the intention of killing my younger self and succeeded in the task would I actually be dead? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Phaserman 0 Posted February 29, 2004 Yes, you would be dead. if you killed a younger you in the past, then you wouldn't grow older to come back and kill yourself. it's a paradox. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nemesis 0 Posted February 29, 2004 Well, I personally follow the non-linear time theory in which all time co-exists, so killing your past self is not really killing yourself rather a reflection of your past self. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
