According to the Novikov self-consistency principle, any effect must have a cause, and any cause must have an effect. This means that any event, no matter how small, creates a new universe.
In the context of time travel, this principle raises interesting questions about predestination and free will.
Temporal Loopholes are points in time where the Novikov self-consistency principle breaks down. These are points where a decision has no cause or effect, creating an infinite regression.
Some theories suggest that Temporal Loopholes are the result of quantum fluctuations or other forms of cosmic noise.
Other theories propose that Temporal Loopholes are actually the work of mischievous time travelers.
Loophole HuntersPredestination Theories propose that every event, including the actions of time travelers, is predetermined and unchangeable.
Some theories suggest that time travelers are simply following a predetermined script, unaware of their own free will.
Other theories propose that predestination is a natural consequence of the Novikov self-consistency principle.
