Ahh...those religious nut-jobs really are phucked up! There is such a simple - dare I say, 'ignorant' - life!
To those that said that it would effect other people:
You think its unfair because if you change something in your life to make it better, you'd be somehow making other's lives worse.
However tha thing you did in tha first place was beneficial to them and not you [which is why you wana change it] - and THAT is not fair. who gives a f'uck about being fair when it comes to going back in time and changing something for tha better? life sure as hell is NOT fair to us. life usually works by "cause and effect". well if we ever find a way to travel back in time...Cause : life was unfair in tha first place. Effect : We're unfair to life.

Justice does't exist... only in our heads.... we are merely acting to it because of "compassion"...

If it exists in our heads, then it does exist. anger exists only in our heads and it leads to violence - just because its not tangible doesn't mean it isn't worth anything. anyways tha existence of justice had nothing to do with anything.
If you could change one thing about yourself, or the world around you...
What would it be? It's a very interesting subject. It's casually discussed frequently, but when you think about it, it goes a lot deeper than that. If you were to change something about you, it could change something for everyone else. If say, you changed something you did in the past that you regret doing, what would happen? You wouldn't be who you are today, you could be a totally different person. And what about the people it affected? Where would they be? And if you just changed something about the world around you, like say, you chose to remove prejudice from the world, what could stem from that? Would discremination sprout again, just in another form? Or would things be entirely peaceful? And could that peace be Hell for some? We are, afterall, human beings who thrive on interaction. What about those who thrive on conflict? What about those like Martin Luther King Junior? If there was no racism, what would he have done with his life? Would he have been nearly as influential? Anyway, this is taking a typical topic to another level, so, let me know what you think.
