Never had a waitress call me 'baby'. They have called me honey, sweetie, child, and of course 'dear', but no baby for me.

Why did the pasta go to the dermatologist?

It had a big ziti.

More accurately, those guys would no longer exist. Each of us are the result of billions to one odds.
Our mom and dad are the result of their moms and dads meeting which were the result of their moms and dads meeting and marrying.
Then, that exact spermatozoa had to permeate the exact egg in the exact day and time that it did for us to exist.
The odds against it are astronomical.

Something as disruptive as killing Hitler would change everything. The odds of recreating the scenario where your parents meet and marry and copulate on the same day with the same sperm meeting the same egg are infinity to one (basically zero odds).

So if you go back in time and kill Hitler, you would no longer exist.
And if you do not exist, then how did you manage to go back in time and kill Hitler?

Unless I'm totally misreading your post, it makes absolutely no sense.

There are billions of people alive today whose parents/grandparents weren't affected by Adolph Hitler or the 2 World Wars.

Neither of my parents or grandparents fought in those wars and would not have been affected by the "Butterfly Effect".

One thing I know for sure...there would be millions upon millions of more Jewish People today and there probably wouldn't be an Israel either...No Six-Day War, etc..

You have very limited tunnel vision. Everything has an effect on everything else. You mention the "Butterfly Effect" but your comment seems to show that you do not fully understand it. Everything and Everyone on Earth was affected by Hitler, not only the people involved in the conflict. Hitler had a tremendous effect on the entire world and shaped the reality and the environment in which your parents met and procreated. But, nevermind. I have no desire to highjack the thread with theoretical discussion.

This is why traveling back in time is not possible. One can travel into the future. But one cannot return to the past.
