Lets say, some future civilation living right now as i speak. Since time linear?
Lets say that society is very advance, they invented a time machine...lets say they're evil and against god..and decideds to back to the birth of Jesus and kill him. If jesus is dead, that means he didn't die for our sins..
Is there a scenario where religion can take out science..like when those nuke bombs were dropped on nagasaki and "huroshima"...japanese cities...could your prayer have prevented it?

HYPOTHETICAL...you're thinking too deep to avoid the bigger picture. If you can think of it, then it possible.

Well maybe it would create an alternate reality..BUT, what if secret socities back then..knew that. And still brought documents of jesus to this reality, that christians now follow. It would be just like jesus did die, but in "reality" he didnt.

You make it all sound like some big comic book, with everyone either good guys or bad guys. Here's some imagination: What if someone DID invent a time machine, a Christian perhaps, going back to see how it began? And what if that time traveller searched the length and breadth of Palestine throughout the first thirty years of the Christian era, and found no one remotely resembling the Jesus of the Gospels. The traveller discovers that Jesus was an invention of the apostles, well-intended but imaginary. Does the traveller return to his own present? Does he tell other people what he discovered, does he keep silent, or does he protect the faith and continue the deception? AN interesting twist, don't you think?
There's no way to be sure unless you check for yourself.

If that was true, and someone traveled back in time, you would create an alternate reality. Therefore, we wouldn't feel the impact, but the alternate reality would. So in the other reality, who knows what would happen. Possibly the Roman Empire would still exist and we would be worshiping their gods or something. Or perhaps Judaism was the dominate religion or something.

What if I took your momma on a date? Who gives a crap, that will never happen. Even if they did, God would destroy the time machine and everything would be like it would be now and in the next 300 years until this time you are referring to, anyway, ask a question that isn't something a 12 year old would ask.

I wonder why the people who invent time machines never think about how fast they have to be able to travel in the normal dimensions.
First of all the earth is spinning, that is about a thousand miles per hour at the equator.
Next the Earth is in orbit, about 66,660 miles per hour.
Then there are the speeds that the solar system and galaxy are moving in space.
A time machine would need to be awfully fast to catch up to the Earth if you went back even one hour in time.

Somewhat, hypothetical, to say the least. No ones prayer would make the difference. Why? Because God does not intervene into the plans of humans unless it collaborates with His Devine Plan for mankind. God will not intervene in our affairs until we all arrive at the brink of utter destruction. To intervene would be counter-productive for God since humans would say to Him, "we were doing fine without you in our business ... who needs You and your ways ... we're our own god"! But; when we are given the "ball" to carry and result on the brink of utter destruction ... God [Jesus] will intervene to stop the eradication of the human race and establish a much better means and way of living where all benefit, ultimately.

God is all knowing and would see the assassins coming so Jesus could protect himself. The power of prayer is amazing but God has the right to say no to our prayers :)

I believe, on judgment day, so-called brainy people, will be dumb-founded and unable to defend themselves before God, And Jesus will reply; I never knew you! God created science, creation will never take out God! In my time of need Jesus has always been there for me, answering my prayers, and do you know that most of the time he has used unbelievers, like you to do his will in my life.

Time travel is impossible. If it were possible then people from the future would've come back to visit us. And if God did allow time travel, then He would be able to protect Jesus from anyone that tried to kill Him before the appointed time. King Herod tried to kill Jesus at the time of His birth too.

what if the moon split in two
then that ole goat sucka muhamoud woud be right
what if hilary won the election,,,,,,
hypotheticals.
athiest have been trying to erase jesus for a while now, voltair failed bertrand russell failed and darwin failed
we live in a day and age where it takes more faith to believe evolution than to accept jesus at face value
i dont soon expect that jesus will ever be proclaimed redundant or moot
the converse apears to be relitive and factual

How in the world do you get that. .? Jesus was here for a purpose. .to die for us. .so even IF that did happen He would still die. .and still be killed by man for the same reason and for the same purpose.
Man you are one intellectual person. Maybe you should spend more time doing something productive, rather than wasting it asking stupid questions on Y!A.
