    If I got in a time machine and went into the past a day, and convinced myself to get in the time machine and go back a day repeatedly, and suddenly there were 2 billion instances of me, and the I was killed (after getting out of the machine), would all of my subsequent selves be dead too?

    Cause I am thinking I could take over the world. All I need is a time machine (which I may or may not already have).

    I think the paradox of you not being there to get in the time machine the first time is sufficient paradox to make the other moot.

    the fact that you dont have a time machine makes this whole thing moot.

    Perhaps I DO have a time machine. Maybe I was being sly so as not to draw attention to myself.

    Perhaps time isn't as linear as you think?

    I said perhaps because I am not claiming it to be fact... but is it not possible? Stephen Hawkings aside?

    Yes, I am taking the dimensional angle.

    This looks like a good time machine, but it only goes forward.

    There is a time machine and it is called life.
    Or more exact, it is called change.
