If you had a time machine, where in time would you go?


If I had a time machine I would love to go back and photograph dinosaurs, thus proving once and for all what those magnificent creatures looked like. Where in time would you like to go and why?

Back in time to a point where my father was alive and well and I could make sure he took better care of his health.

I would have to visit the Dinosaurs, but I would also want to come face to face with my ancestors, and when I say ancestors, I mean the Neanderthals and their predecessors, I'd love to know exactly what they looked like and how they lived.

I would have a really hard time picking just one place and time. There are so many amazing people and moments in history it boggles the mind! It's super fun to think about though. :)

Ah, a time machine. I've dreamed of it my whole life.

I would go back to the days when ladies were ladies, and the gentlemen treated them as such.

Back to the days when people showed respect, curtsied, bowed or nodded to each other, even during arguments. I would go back to the days of true civility amongst us.

If humanity had a time machine, all our philosophical and scientific questions about the past would be answered. I think I would like to go see Jesus when he was on Earth preaching.

Other than that, I would love to study the major cultures of different time periods, such as the Romans and the Vikings.

I would love to take my children back to the "Little House on the Prairie" days so that they could live with no technology for a bit. Would love for them to have animals to care for, fresh vegetables, and the need to find things to occupy themselves at times. We do things together like bake, plant flowers and vegies, etc, but going back in time would be fun.

Hmm difficult one.

I would certainly like to go back to the 80s for a while - I'd love to relive some of those times again!

A trip into the future would be great too (maybe around 50 years from now) to see the advances we have made in technology

Of course even going back to last week with the winning lottery numbers would be great! Probably unethical yes - but it would be sorely tempting.... :-)

I'd like to be with Mary Magdalene when she found Jesus's tomb empty. I keep trying to think of how to film it so it would be indisputable proof for doubters, but there's no way to do that. So I'd leave my camera, video camera, and cell phone at home, and just let myself get lost in the miraculous. Where would the entire concept of Faith be if we had videotaped evidence anyway?

I would like to be in America when there was only the "Indians" and the country hadn't been pillaged for wealth. I believe that this land was really something to see then.
