Confusion Contest

The aim of the game is to explain to me the subject in a way that will really get me re-thinking and maybe give me a valid point that I can't fully protest against. It's gonna be a bit hard from the start and get harder. So here we go.

Okay, let's discuss time travel.

I, for one, don't think it will make any difference if you go back in time. Because I doubt you'll effect anything. Anything that happens now was probably just already set in stone and only NOW is what you'll be able to visit anyway. How can I prove it?

Memories! Because I have memories, but since they feel like distant blurs and they aren't happening now, did my memories ever actually exist? Is now the only time there is? But how could that be if I'm typing this now and then we look back at it later. Wouldn't that technically be a memory?

So before you understand time travel, you must understand time itself. But what is time? Look back at the memories. How would you explain that?

So is time just a series of events that happen no matter what and you can't control it? So how would going back in time ever effect anything? Would you be able to? Like I said, I don't know for sure what time even IS.

So can anyone explain Time Travel to me so that I can't find a valid error? First one to do it wins and I'll start Round Two. O_O
