If you can go back in time and prevent a great catastrophe...

I will just prevent sinning. So when I die, God will be please to know my effort that I did tried so hard not to commit sin. Maybe with that, He will accept me in heaven.

Oh I really came to know about Darfur here in your post! I really didn't know that. That is so sad for the people there. I given the power to turn back the hands of time I'd also would do as the necessary preventive measures to avoid that ganocide in Darfur. Tsk!Tsk!Tsk1

global warming has caused many disasters all over the world, like china, america, and other countries. let's not forget the tsunami and katrina and other american storms, and many disasters in china--earthquakes and frozen city. and this darfur which i have never hear about. and i am sure there is more since i dont really watch the news anyway.

I think I would like to go back in time and stop the Great war or otherweise known as World War 1. This war was to be the war to stop all wars, it didn't so perhaps if it hadn't happen there wouldn't have been any more wars! Doubt it very much, but there you go it would be nice to see if that had been the case

I'd like to prevent George W Bush being elected as president of the United States of America. If I could just get a few more people on the democratic side to get off their rumps and go vote then everything would be so much different right now. If things were awesome, then I don't think Obama would have had used that "Change" slogan, though.

If I could go back in time I would try to prevent 911! The world trade centre buildings, they were truly historic and I never got to see them! All those people that perished! If those two buildings could be restored, I would definitely go for that! Andrew

hey babes how are you did you have a good xmas and new year at your mum and dads? Fantastic question btw! I didn't know that much about darfur before this I think I would prevent or at least try to moderate and control the distruction of the earths rainforests because of the global impact for the earth and all it's inhabitants. Rainforests once covered 14% of the earth's land surface; now they cover a mere 6% and experts estimate that the last remaining rainforests could be consumed in less than 40 years. Nearly half of the world's species of plants, animals and micro organisms will be destroyed or severely threatened over the next quarter century due to rainforest deforestation. If managed properly, the rainforest can provide the world's need for these natural resources on a perpetual basis so it is definately something i would influence prevent if i could. We seem to like to bring things to the point of extinction before we really step up and put plans in place to prevent it.

HAHAHA. This is easy, but also difficult coz when one thing that obious pops up in my mind, another thing pops up again. For sure I want to stop Bush from having the wars that should not happen. And this global recession is very very trrible, so I want to prefent it. However, which event to fix to stop it?

I would go back and PREVENT the FEDERAL RESERVE from being!! Its the F.R. that has us all in a panic over making, saving, earning,stealing, investing...and all the sham!!.. great way to "INSLAVE" the masses in every country. A bright idea thought out by a few FILTHY RICH BUSINESS MEN back in England over 80 years ago.

I would go back in time and prevent the time where I beat up someone because he took my lunch. I also knocked him out cold.

I would have prevented the Civil War in the United States because in all reality all we lost were our own family members for no real reason... The common man was a pawn, much like in today's society, and was forced to do the willing of a minority of well-to-do men from both North and South.
