brain-bending philosophical things thought up while stoned/high

Don't know if this is rightly philosophical, but it's pretty cool to contemplate.

Suppose time travel was possible and you traveled back to before you were born. Where did you come from? Also suppose you unintentionally change events so that your parents never meet. How are you still there? Or would you be?

Is the past immutable, or can a change made by a time traveler instantly change the present reality? Or would a change simply create a branching reality in a separate time line?

Suppose an older wiser you went back into time and met your younger self. What advice would you give yourself? Would you suddenly remember the event happening, or would you "kill" yourself by creating a branching time stream?

:S5:

i think the universe would explode. like overheating an engine. cause you WeRe, but you went back and made is so you WeRe NOT. and if you were never born, you could never go back and make yourself not be born, so you would exist? but the fact that you EXIST is the reason for you NOT existing.

thats why i say, the only reason anyone ever should off themself would be if they did travel back in time. cause its better if you're dead then if you were to destroy the universe. so, if you can, avoid time travel.

my brain cells are sweatin balls
