If we are able to see into the future, will we winde up messing up all of time? Will our being able to see cause suffering or joy? Speak what you think.
Its not being racist if you hate everyone equally.
But that dosent mean you cant hate some individuals more then others.

If we could see into the future life would be pointless. People would see something bad and spend their whole life trying to not have that thing happen and whether it ended up happening or not it wouldn't matter, the person has already wasted their life worrying about what is going to happen to them.
it would be a very very bad thing.
think about it from a revolutionary point of view. if you could see into the future, and see that the revolution would succeed, people would become complacent and not try and nothing would ever happen.
if you saw it would fail, people wouldn't try, and we'd never know if we could have made it work.

Let's save the world, one by one. We'll make them believe, conform if they must. Don't question the thought, it's always been told. We'll make them believe, let's save the world.

No, because once you see the future you will think about either the good things or the bad things , when you think about the bad things you get stressed out , and when you think about the good things, you will day dream and dream and dream of all the wonderful things
this is based on personal experience,, don't live the past or the future , live the present !
Like the crest of a peacock so is mathematics at the head of all knowledge.
There is no future to see into because we are spending our times making it in every present minute.
You tell Moses to make bricks without straw,
Now he tells you to make cities without bricks!
This kind of reminds me of the theory that there is a parallel universe for every choice we make in which the choice is or isn't made. For example, there is a universe where I didn't just make this post.
Indeed. The future hasn't happend yet, therefore, we are the ones who determine the outcome.
"Mankind is divided into rich and poor, into property owners and exploited; and to abstract oneself from this fundamental division; and from the antagonism between poor and rich means abstracting oneself from fundamental facts." - Josef Stalin
"A revolution is not a dinner party, or writing an essay, or painting a picture, or doing embroidery." - Mao Tse-tung
"A man who dreads trials and difficulties cannot become a revolutionary. If he is to become a revolutionary with an indomitable fighting spirit, he must be tempered in the arduous struggle from his youth. As the saying goes, early training means more than late earning." - Kim Jong Il

That's right Raisa. And if ever there is the future, seeing it is not good at all because what if the future was terrible, we would be spending our lives fearing it and maybe because we fear it too much, we would choose to just end our lives rather than experience it. And if it were good, we would just all be idling and waiting for the good future to come. Everybody would stop working, stop thinking, stop doing things because they know that even when they don't do anything, the future is good anyway.
And there is the possibility of the existence of a parallel universe.
There is nothing to fear, nothing to doubt...

your(our) own present will make(is makin) the future.
I would like to path my future without forseeing it in a magical way. Be it messing up, making good moves, or whatsoever.
The Future being "unknown" is one of the ingrained and natural fascinations we have, ... we strive, shape and do our best for the best possible future.
DOWN WITH JAPANESE IMPERIALISM!
Link in RevLeft.
The Left needs to spank out a number of armchair theorists and kids who cloak themselves with Marxism as excuse for their problems. Exclusion is needed when the cause is hampered. We are supposed to be the examples and persuaders. Assume responsibility, fuckwit!

indeen seeing the future could potentionaly disterbe the fabric of life and time, but you must also see it from a militaristic and economic stand point. if we could have forseen 9 11 would it have happen? if we had seen the stock market crash would it have happend?
would you act apon seeing your self die in the near future because you made a wrong choise?

As Raisa said, the future does not exist and therefor it is irrelevant (just like the past). A person can never be truly happy if he/she lives in the future (mentaly), nor if the person lives in the past, so if we Could see the non-existing future, we would not be happy (according the Siddharta Gautama that is).

I think that would be fantastic to look into the distant future, you could prepare for certain events and possibly prevent or alter future for either your benifit or the benifit of the masses! you would always know which horse to bet on, but on the other hand it would kind of make the olymics pointless, or maybe just less dramatic. Regardless i can already see into the close future ie. if your burger on the BBQ is going to burn, or if it is going to rain outside!
peace yall
I think it's impossible to see clearly into the future, because the future has yet to be written completly. Sure, certain actions may shape parts of your future, but they do not complete it.
This is why I also believe it's impossible to travel to the future, if Time Travel were fiesable.
The Cultural Revolution <--- A Great Source Of Citric Acid
I hope for your sake there is.
Since, according to their fantasy, the relationships of men, all their doings, their chains and their limitations are products of their consciousness, the Young Hegelians logically put to men the moral postulate of exchanging their present consciousness for human, critical or egoistic consciousness, and thus of removing their limitations. This demand to change consciousness amounts to a demand to interpret reality in another way, i.e. to recognise it by means of another interpretation. The Young-Hegelian ideologists, in spite of their allegedly "world-shattering" statements, are the staunchest conservatives.
Karl Marx
We can see into the future. The future is not fixed though, the are thousands of paths too take. Distant knowledge of the future is only knowledge of that current path. it will almost certainly change. A few hours you can be relatively accurate too, maybe days or weeks depending on what it is.
Want me too back up my arguement?:P
I agree with you all, it wouldn't be a good thing to see in the big pictures in the future... It would also be like saying what there is in the Christmas present before the child opens it, what would there be exciting! The future would be the past after the yeaterday memory of what will soon happen, so there wouldn't be anything new! <_<
It is the greatest of all mistakes to do nothing because you can only do a little. Do what you can.
Yeah,as everyone said it's impossible because future hasn't come yet.But,think about the opposite.What if we could travel to the past?It would be really great!!Of course all that is just nonsense.

I dont think we can travel in the past becuase the past is an intricate weaving of what we all do and what we dont do. And any different thing that is done, and you will loose the present.
Wow....i just got the weirdest thought I had to face......what if it doesnt even exist anymore!
No more past. If we didnt remember it wouldnt exist. There is only the present.
So where is the past? Its just an abstract idea that can never be seen again.
You tell Moses to make bricks without straw,
Now he tells you to make cities without bricks!
...The past will always exist because it just happened 5 minutes ago just as ten years ago...It wouldn't exist to us because we wouldn't remember but it would exist...
Maybe it would be as you say if there would never be a pasting time, only today and tomorrow as today and last year is today...
