You can travel into the future by simply sitting in your
armchair.

And ignoring the word "distant."


How distant is distant? If you go to sleep and then wake up, was
the travel instantaneous? If your bones are still in the chair a
million years from now, is your journey forward "distant"?

The point being, we all travel forward in time. That introduces
no causality problems.

the point being, you changed the subject because you were too
stupid not to, and too childish to admit you said something stupid.

Which is just another day that ends in "y."

Is there some law that requires that all children named "Chris" be
dropped on their heads at birth? Or is there a law that any child
that shows evidence of mental retardation be named "Chris"?
