Just because it hasn't been done doesn't mean it's impossible....
Time travel is impossible because there is only the present
Religion is just an idea to fit onto a physical body
There's no actual way to tell if people around you are other competent beings or just a figment of your mind
Please tell me if these ideas are just stupid or if they might mean something

I hate to burst your bubble, but I just made all this stuff up off the top of my head.
I was doing an experiment in which if you say something that sounds like a quotation, people will usually believe in it.

Exactly.

Religion is just a lie about God.

None of it is real.
This is more easily understandable if one considers the actual scale of the components of an atom. If one takes into account the fact that the neutrons, protons and electrons of an atom actually have huge spaces between them it becomes clear that the atoms that make up seemingly solid objects are made up of 99+ percent empty space.
This alone does not seem too important till you add the idea that the atoms that make up seemingly solid objects are more of a loose conglomeration that share a similar attraction but never really touch each other.
At first glance this does not really seem relevant, but closer analysis reveals that this adds a tremendous amount of empty space to solid objects that are already made up of atoms that are 99 percent space. When so-called solid objects are seen in this light it becomes apparent that they can in no way be the seemingly solid objects they appear to be.
We ourselves are not exceptions to this phenomenon.
These seemingly solid objects are more like ghostly images that we interpret as solid objects based on our perceptual conclusions.
From this we must conclude that Perception is some sort of a trick that helps us to take these ghostly images and turn them into a world we can associate and interact with. This clever device seems to be a creation of our intellect that enables us to interact with each other in what appears to be a three dimensional reality.
I hope that helps to answered your question.

The first seems to be a paraphrase of an answer of mine on another question, but true.
The second is refutable based that a subjective Line of Sight or Line of Being may change Chronologically while others will remain the same unless the Paradoxes are true, such as the Butterfly Effect.
Religion is the confirmation of the Spirit in Man. For how does the Mind, a computer of sorts which grades Quantitatively, judges a passion? And the senses only feel, listen, taste....while the mind grades by intensity or temperature...leaving the spirit for Quality.
Could be true: Whether you raise your hand high or low....touch it and it feels at the same place. But what would be interesting...if the mind did create the world....technically One would know everything about whatever unless the mind is higher than consciousness.

The mind blower is that logic is a flawed concept, but that is a long discussion rather than a short reply.
Time travel: we are in our infancy in terms of our knowledge. What is impossible today may be possible tomorrow. Why I suspect that you are correct is the existence of time paradoxes. A paradox exists when we choose to hold two conflicting beliefs. Resolve the conflict and the paradox is resolved.
Religion: as important as Santa and the Easter Bunny.
Being: there are ways to determine delusions from reality. Many people prefer delusions to reality.
Stupid: these are just judgments we use to put ourselves down, or to put others down.
I hope that answers your questions.

At one point people thought that it was impossible for humans to fly... but we have the technology now.
Time travel IS possible... just not as most think of it. And with a star gate, (actual scientific term for a worm hole), time travel in the way that most would think of it could happen, (but only up to the point in time where the worm hole was created)... although it is mostly all improbable.
Religion has merit, (I believe in it), and however you want to view it is what is going to be right to you.
You really don't want to get into quantum physics, alternate realities, and your mind creating your world... That is too deep of a rabbit hole to go down at this hour.

Actually (and this has only recently been determined) there is nothing in the laws of physics that would prevent time travel...
You just need a black hole, a ship that can withstand enormous crushing pressure, and the means to skim along the event horizon at a certain angle...
It's not likely we'll be able to fulfill those parameters...but if we could...
We could time travel...
And...(good news for religious folks...) the Planck scale of quantum physics would allow for our consciousness to be "downloaded" so to speak into a "timeless" realm...
Our brains have microtubules that descend down to the Planck scale, and so consciousness has a chance to survive our death...
Maybe when Jesus said the Kingdom of God is within you...
He meant it "literally..." God's kingdom is in the microscopic smallest realm of the Planck scale...
Fascinating, isn't it...?!?

Giving enough time anything is possible.
Time travel is possible for forward travel.
Religion is a perception brought on by our cognitive fluid minds.
Our brains could be misleading us, it is possible that reality is false. The only reality we can conceive is what we trust our brains to tell us.

I do. Everyone do. I am the youngest music composer in the history, and I say, if u do simething you never done before, it becomes somthin that is possible. Yay. I am compser of piano. Search me.

the first seems logical but i'd like that it's not true...i'd love to see time travel accomplished one day!
second- i agree
third- i completely agree and have been discussing this with myself a long time!
