The Grandfather Paradox

OK so many skeptics use Grandfather Paradox to claim that time travel is impossible. What is the Grandfather Paradox? Well, if you went back in time and got rid of your grandfather then how could you even be born? Better yet, if you were never born then how could you go back in the first place?

The answer is easy. When you go back, you go to go to an alternate time line, very similar to the one where you were born, but not exact, and on this timeline there is a man similar, but not the same as your grandfather. Getting rid of this old man will not prevent you from being born. It simply means that you cannot change what has already taken place.
