"Time Travel"

[devonin]

You could try not just reexplaining your point as though I fail to understand it, because I clearly do understand it. Instead, I was showing a way in which you can resolve the idea of a time paradox without having to presuppose the existance of multiple universes.

Nowhere in anything I said, did I even imply that the universe is in any way self-correcting, that the universe "knows" anything.

What I said was "The fact that you exist shows that you did not kill your grandfather"

There are very basic tests to try to create this sort of paradox which should be fail-proof.

Such as? You're intending to just describe some set of circumstances where if you were hell-bent on creating a paradox you could simply arrange your attempt in such a way as to make it "impossible" to fail?
