If you went back in time...

[X-Chick]

but you couldnt cease to exist because if you ceased existing, you couldnt have killed your grnadmother, meaning she would be alive, meaning you would exist.

But you wouldn't cease to exist until after she was dead.

 

[Leto Atrides]

You would just create a new branch in the multiverse.

Assuming you were able to go back to that time, and actually kill the person who was your grandmother, this is the only time travel theory that would work.

 

[Kaboom]

But you wouldn't cease to exist until after she was dead.

then how did you kill her?

this is like the most basic of all time travel paradoxes....

same planet different dimensions!

 

[Darren Daring]

then how did you kill her?

A gun?

No, dummy.

You kill her.

You fade out to nothingness.

Time moves on with her being dead and the future being changed forever.

 

[Kaboom]

A gun?

not what i meant.

 

[Darren Daring]

not what i meant.

Cyanide!

 

[Kevin]

You wouldn't exist in the future. You exist as yourself still since you in the past.

 

[Kaboom]

No, dummy.

You kill her.

You fade out to nothingness.

theres no need to resort to name calling.

i'm not calling you a "dummy" for being incapable of understanding the most basic of all time-paradoxes even after giving you links to the wiki articles.

 

[X-Chick]

Dummy

Whatever, dude. It doesn't seem like a paradox to me. I mean, it seems like you and that guy are trying to make it like the whole chicken vs. the egg scenario, but I don't see how its anything like that.

 

[Darren Daring]

Yeah, X-Chick, I thought that insult was really brutal and uncalled for. My jaw was open for 20 seconds befoer I realized just how shocked I was.

i just saw that your location is "in a constant of confusion"

i concur.

 

[X-Chick]

Great, thanks for developing a rational and intelligent reply to my response. Oh right, you didn't. You just hid by what you believed to be a clever remark because apparently you can't form a half decent debate. Congratulations.

one, i've been trying to explain the paradox. two, she called me a dummy. three, i never insulted her.

so whatever.

I was tlaking about her calling you a dummy.

Also, my point, getting offended by her calling you a dummy is hilarious.

 

[X-Chick]

Furthermore, I understand your so-called "paradox" but I don't see any logic to it in that time moves forward, not in circles. Also, if "dummy" is insulting to you, you're in for a load of heartache and might as well stock up on Kleenex next time they go on sale.

thanks. i like to be congratulated. as for "half-decent debate" its really not a debate. i explained the paradox, explained why its a paradox, and gave you links to the wiki articles which sciebtifically explain the thought and rationality behind why its a paradox.

if thats not doing my darndest to try and help you understand the grandfather paradox, theres nothing else i can do. so great, awesome, i dont care.

You wouldn't exist in the future. You exist as yourself still since you in the past.

If you'd never been born you couldn't have gone back in time so you wouldn't be in the past either.

stop explaining yourself. It really hurts my feelings.

 

[Darren Daring]

It seems to be the theme of the day.

 

[The Spawn]

I love this.

...and killed your mother's mother when she was a child(your grandmother), what would happen?

You would win a free XBOX360.
