Time Travel
Causality Manipulation
Time Travel is 10/10
Even if it's just the concept or discussion on how to make it possible, the whole discussion about it is fascinating. Even if we decide not to take physics or science into account, the idea of the butterfly effect if fascinating. Like, every little thing we do can cause big changes, for instance, when making a new human being. The child's genetics is determined by which swimmer makes it to the egg, and even a small difference can produce a very different child. It always makes me theorize that if someone went back in time to before you were born and mess with it, then it's possible theoritically that the world would have very different people once someone returns to the present because a small change could cause someone to have sex differently and thus having a different sperm go to the egg.

Causality Manipulation 6/10
While the idea is interesting, the reality is that the actual scientific concept might only be based on the quantum mechanics, which suggests that if you try to walk through a wall enough times then there might be one time where all the atoms and molecules align a specific way that lets you go through it. The idea that making something happen more times than not has been used through fiction, and it's prevalent in the real world where the way someone chooses to interact with someone else can affect their changes of success in convincing them of something or affecting their impression.

It's an interesting concept, but nonetheless there are not many possibilities behind it where I would want to discuss it beyond fiction.

Keanu Reeves!

Also, what do you think about the idea that time didn't start at the beginning, call it Event Alpha, but instead started at Event B, where the past (and Event Alpha) is formed to justify Event B and make it certain, and the future is what follows Event B, and constrained by the logic that was made to justify Event B. Essentially, all of time springs out from one fixed moment.

Keanu Reeves 8/10 - Definitely one of the better hollywood stars. Does his own thing, doesn't feel a need to show off and has his fun when he wants to have it.

Event B - 10/10 if Event B is God. 1/10 otherwise, because it doesn't quite make sense unless Event B is some sentient power that is the center of everything.

Some quick models:

Model A, God cannot exist outside of space time

Model B, the entirety of reality is god

Model C, the entirety of reality is god, but god is not reality

Model D, god can exist independent of space-time, but space-time cannot exist without god

6/10 - Due to having some seriously hot women. Which is all I know about Albania and enough to tip it into the positive direction.

Model A, God cannot exist outside of space time

Model B, the entirety of reality is god

Model C, the entirety of reality is god, but god is not reality

Model D, god can exist independent of space-time, but space-time cannot exist without god

Model A - 0/10 - Doesn't make functional sense with the size and scope of our universe.

Model B - 5/10 - Neutral on this, makes more sense but also doesn't. Depends on which model of god you're going for because if reality and suffering is also god then isn't god also a masochist?

Model C - 2/10 - Simply a more confusing version of Model B. It's kind of like saying reality is god's arm, but god's arm. My arm is here, but my arm is not me even if it's a part of me.

Model D - 10/10 - makes the most sense if we're talking about a creator of the universe.

Rate: Trials and Tribulations are part of God's majesty/ master plan, and "suffering" is how humans perceive trials, sacrifice, death, and rebirth.

Rate: Model C and D lead to the same conclusions, using the analogy that your blood cell cannot exist without you, but you can exist without your singular blood cell. Or using set theory.

Rate: Going from Model D, in a situation where God exists independent of space-time, then what do you think of the implementation where God creates a singular spacetime around an Event B, and the past and future are just how things arrange themselves.

Trials and Tribulation Theory 0/10 - Not part of God's majesty or master plan. Makes no sense that a loving god would want humans to suffer to learn things. Suffering isn't a part of learning. Makes zero sense.

Model C and D - 8/10 - Explanation was similar to what I stated but using blood instead of an arm.

Model D Expansion - 0/10 - Wouldn't make sense for a creator to just make event B and revolve everything around it unless... Could be 9/10 if Event B was independent freewill from the creator himself.

Rate: Suffering isn't a part of learning in the context of a child touching a hot pan against the advice of a parent.

Rate: the previous rating: "1/10 otherwise, because it doesn't quite make sense unless Event B is some sentient power that is the center of everything." given the newly developed possibility of free will from the creator.

Rate: Suffering not being a part of learning when the creation of free will is at play.

Part 1 - 0/10 - The Child doesn't have to touch a hot pan to know it'll hurt. The child simply needs to become mature and gain the ability to reason. Suffering is the result of stupidity and inability of people to understand once they've got the reason and ability to use logic. Children do not have great reasoning ability as a toddler, but as they get older many can learn things without suffering. People simply choose to suffer by remaining stupid when they have the ability to be smarter.

Part 2 - 10/10 if Plan B was free will, it makes sense because consciousness and existence require some form of time, whether it flows differently for different dimensions is irrelevant.

Part 3 - 0/10, refer to part 1.
