Doesn't the Splitting Timeline Theory of Time Travel* (as covered in the book
The Man Who Folded Himself by David Gerrold) take care of Time Travel Paradoxes?
*Simply put, every time you travel through time you split the timeline upon your arrival. At that point you can never return to your original timeline, and the timeline you are in is the result of all of your changes. As an example, you can go back in time one minute, shoot yourself, and you would still exist because your personal timeline cannot be changed.
