Time Travel
Week 57 / Prompt 1 - If you could have personally witnessed one event in history, what would you want to have seen?

I actually just finished reading a book called The Didymus Contingency by Jeremy Robinson that dealt with this very question. Two scientists had discovered time travel, and they traveled back to witness Jesus' death and resurrection. One of them had chosen that destination because he wanted to prove that Jesus was a fake. The other went back after him to keep him from ruining time. Although I don't follow that faith, I was brought up on it enough that I could recognize the parables, and it was a well written book that I enjoyed.


In a similar vein to this novel, I, too, would like to go back to a long-distant past to witness some religious occurrences. However, mine have more to do with my own faith. Of all the places I would like to witness, I would truly like to go back and witness the creation and use of Stonehenge. While we have hypotheses and ideas about who created Stonehenge and for what purpose, I would like to go back and learn the truth about the people that placed the stones and their purpose to them.


The stones are shrouded in so much mystery (in addition to the foggy mists of England) that I am insanely curious to know about the ancient peoples of the Isles. I find real connection with the Druids and Celts and find their peoples fascinating. I really would love to know more truth about them than the little theories our research has given us.
