I had a philosophy assignment, I chose time travel. Here are the 2 main ways to resolve all time paradoxes:

1. One timeline, no way to change the past. You can jump however much you like, you can't change anything. Timecrimes (2007) explains is properly.
2. Multiple timelines, change anything, no way to get into your timeline. This is how it is supposed to be in the Terminator franchise (hinted at a lot, properly stated in Terminator: Zero)

Basically, the only way to avoid time paradoxes is to forbid changing your past.

I also recently came up with a 3rd (more complicated) way: Multiple timelines, can get even into your own, but cannot change anything in it. Basically, it combines the 1st 2 ways. Simple example with 2 timelines: Time-traveler from timeline 1 jumps into timeline 2, kills himself young, jumps into timeline 1 and tries to kill himself, fails, remembers this episode from his childhood about a crazy man trying to kill him.

Could not let this die with me (I am not dying yet). Thoughts?
