If you could go back in time to fix all the wrongs, would you?

I wouldn't kill Hitler.

Why not?

Because WWII pulled the U.S. out of the Great Depression, made us a world power, and achieved medical and technological advances.

no, my mistakes made me what i am today. plus something could go terribly wroung

ah they mentioned about not killing Hitler in Time Cop. 😄 they said it could possibly be worse without him.

/\ there were plans to assassinate hitler, and they could have done it, but the governments at the time realised that if they killed him, a more competent military leader would take his place and be more dangerous. They wanted hitler to stay where he was, because he was making so many bad decisions, making it easier for the allied war effort.

yeah I would like to go back in time to fix things b/c I made mistakes in the past

but if u went back in time, then time would DEPEND on u going bak and doing wat u already did, because you are part of the history.u cannot change time.

Surely it is impossible to go forwards in time, because it hasn't happened

I'd go back in time to prevent a couple of assassinations...that way I would be a hero.

lol

What if you stopped the assassination of the Arch Duke? Do you think that could have prevented World War 2?

Dunno but the First World War would have happened anyway. I mean the murdering of the arch duke was just a futile catalyst that almost anything could and probably would have triggered it

However maybe the winners would have been different.
Link if you wanted to stop WWII I think you have a better chance if you killed AH

It would be a very difficult choice for me. Because one part of me would want to change that and the other would fear causing a paradox in time

We can learn from history how past generations thought and acted, how they responded to the demands of their time and how they solved their problems. We can learn by analogy, not by example, for our circumstances will always be different than theirs were. The main thing history can teach us is that human actions have consequences and that certain choices, once made, cannot be undone. They foreclose the possibility of making other choices and thus they determine future events.

Would I fix all the wrongs? Certainly not.

I would.

not in a million years.
you dont want to fu.ck with fate.

even a single molecule's position beeing changed in the past is like throwing a pebble in the watter, at first small waves appear that upset the water, slowly with the passing of time they spread over the surface of the water, only thing is that these waves unlike the real thing, get bigger wider and taller as they move along and the more time passes the bigger they grow.

its not right to mess with fate and the already chosen path of time

anyway, time or destiny doesnt actually LET anyone change it that easily i suppose

I don't think i would, im a strong believer in the whole 'everything happens or a reason' philosophy, so if something happened, it's not ment to be changed
