Can the human mind even fathom such a thing?

Time and Space don't restrict us - we restrict ourselves according to our perception and definition of time. We assign "laws" to natural and super-natural phenomenae in order to comprehend these things. In that way, we are no different than the prehistoric tribes who assigned personalities to the sun and moon to explain their cycles.
At this point in our evolution the human mind cannot fathom infinity/limitless time and space, whatever you want to call it.

There is no such thing as time. The concept of time is created entirely by human thinking.
To answer your question; that depends on the nature of the mind of the person. Space and time are just perceptions.

It's called Chaos.
But then, in our imaginations, we aren't restricted in such a way. However, in our imaginations we don't tend to have an impact on reality. So, if you want, in your proposal to influence reality - and everyone can do this, the result would probably be serious confusion.

A connection of souls would surely happen. I believe, though, that a small part of our being is in fact NOT restricted by time and space...that is what can make certain human connections so strong; they can be felt even from great distances.

Hmm, I guess we would finally manage to survive... with such a freedom. People are very adaptable beings, I think...

The mind is "cluttered" by junk.. the population is spammed by consumerism.. and religion.. Those that can shunt the garbage aside (religion is junk too) - he or she can then allow the mind to ponder reality.. and so can philosophize.. lol

No, we cannot comprehend. Our minds are a product of our space-time continuum. We cannot even start to imagine what it would be like to not be bounded by our universe.

My co-workers wouldn't be late to work. And I'd have a stroke from the shock of them not being late to work.

We have no idea what the human mind can do.
