Besides, there are claims on this website of temporal powers being harnessed, so surely some people would be able to manipulate time to their advantage. First off, how is it you believe people aren't doing this already? Or will do it? Or have done it in the past? See, our perception of time is pretty weak. We see it as moving forward. And we try to look through time, backwards or forwards, or even move in these directions. This just isn't so. Time, rather than moving, stands still. It's a lot like one of the old movie reels, if you've ever seen one. they have all these frames. Thousands of the little buggers. And when the light projects through them, we see a picture. Each picture builds on the last and we get a movie. But the movie isn't being created as we are watching it. It's all done. It's all there. There's no more to come. We aren't going to suddenly rotate the reel and have unseen footage spontaneously appear. In the same sense, time is happening, or has happened, or will happen. Say I use temporal scrying to see the winning lotto ticket numbers, then go out and play. Not only do I win, but I get taxed as if I had won. Shock there. But say I see a national disaster, like the 9/11 strike. Could I prevent it? (note; that was picked because there is a recorded incident of a little girl precogging the 9/11 catastrophe. Look it up.) Say I see one of my friends dying in a car crash, so I set out to change it. I force him not to drive. Then the day of the accident comes, and there's a car crash. A fatal car crash. Some drunk driver ran a red, got t boned, and his car hurtled through my friend who is only walking by because I'm preventing his car crash related death by not letting him drive.

What I just detailed is basic temporal understanding. So say I saw myself buying a lotto and winning. And I decided not to. I change one frame of the wheel. Maybe 3 at max. What you're referring to, the demonstratable change via temporal abilities, is a whole scene changer, over 30 to 40 frames. That massive of a shift is actually a change in reality via the 5th dimension. Look it up. It's what governs parallel dimensions and multidimensional theories.
