Hi everyone,
I thought I made my peace with Time-Turning plot device, but more
questions are splurging out, now that it's been repressed.
It gets SO confusing, for many reasons:
1. If there are times or events pre-destined to be revisited or
corrected, it defies the whole purpose of free-will and "I'm in
charge of my life" motto. It strongly reminds me of that vase
incident from Matrix, when Neo visits the Oracle.
2. Another thing is that I have even greater problem is -- so time-
turner acts as a DNA replication device? Wizard cloning machinery? To
be able to produce multiple copies of same human being, with every
bit of intelligence and cognition intact? How is that possible??
*sudden image of Homer's hammock comes to mind*
3. I'm now wondering if Time-Turners can be used in court. Wouldn't
it prove to be a much more effective and truthful testimony if it can
be verified by going back in time and the whole event presented in
front of more witness? Wizards have better means to verify the truth -
- either by Legilimens or Pensieve or Time-turners. I wonder why we
don't hear of these devices during wizarding trials.
Help! Smarter brains needed, help!!
With HPness,
Brenda
