Well trying to go outside the universe would be far too complex. It could be possible in the future to just step into another universe by tearing a hole between the two and repairing it.

But this would alter the other universe, making it different than our own. So it it would mean some people wouldin't be alive. So it would come down to ethics when it was possible, do we have the arrogance to ruin another universe forever?

I feel that time travel is largely a philosophical matter in addition to being a scientific one. This is due to the fact that, before attempting to understand time travel, we need to get a grasp on what time truly is. In order to do that, we need to have a fundamental philosophical understanding of what reality truly is.

What complicates this matter is the sheer number of both philosophical and scientific ideas that explain reality that are so difficult to test.

From philosophy, we have ideas such as modal realism, fictional realism, etc.

From science, there's quantum mechanics, M-theory, etc. I find quantum mechanics to be especially fascinating, because it challenges our current understanding of logic and reason, from anything from particles that alter their behavior due to the presence of an observer, to brain signals traveling backwards in time, to intent devices, etc.

@Cryptonix

I believe that we will understand one day. However, this brings me to a quote that I like:

"I think it's safe to say that no one understands quantum mechanics." --Richard Feynman

The meaning behind that statement is that the quantum world (seems) to be governed by a completely different set of laws than our macrocosmic "reality" (hence the collapse of the wave function).

Therefore, we don't truly understand quantum mechanics, because our brains have not evolved to do so. Our brains have evolved to deal with what we perceive with our five physical senses. In order to step into these esoteric realms of science that seem more like magic than otherwise, we must pretty much discard our elementary notions of logic and reason. Yet while retaining them sufficiently to perform empirical studies. Sounds like a challenge to me, but a challenge that I'm up for, and I'm sure many others are as well.

As for God, I think that there is a God. Whether or not science will ever be able to explain God, I don't know.

And, to close this reply, here's a fitting statement of Arthur C. Clarke's third law:
"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." (Profiles of the Future, 1961)

@Cryptonix

Something I forgot to mention in my last post:

Since we don't understand quantum mechanics yet, we interpret it. Hence the Copenhagen Interpretation, Many-Worlds Interpretation, etc.

I must contradict with 50% of your concept.

Without all the silly time space contiuum whatnot hoodaddles, I do say that it isn't possible to travel back in time.

However, time is relative. Proof of this is when you sleep, time, relative to your consciousness, or unconsciousness rather, time speeds up for you mentally. If you dream, and your dream lasts a total of 4 minutes yet you slept for eight hours, you skipped mentally ahead 7 hours and 56 minutes. That is relativity, and considering that I marked it as 4 minutes is unrealistic.

Except for our ability to consciously depict and measure time (a 6th sense, the sense of time), you cannot measure time exactly mentally thus why it is relative.

If, say, I were to go in a time capsule, it would be plausible that during my time of REM would be my only conscious moments of speed, so if I had REM for 3 minutes yet 2 years went by, I had travelled 1 year, 11 months, 30 days, 23 hours, and 57 minutes into the future, mentally. In reality I did not travel into the future, but mentally I had.

If you consider a deja vu applicable to scientific measurement, then I have no doubt time travel backwards would be 'logically' plausible, but not definitely possible at our current technological state.

That's not hoodaddles, that's Albert Einstein discovering that time is the 4th dimension.

Yes! I love reading this! I love reading the opinions of learned boys. However, Roblox natural philosophy is ridiculous. I follow religion.
