Can we truly tell the future?

This has more than likely already been thought of and discussed, but I could not find it :).

Edgar Casey said that when he went into his “trance” that time had no meaning. Stephen Hawkings says that the time is all around us and that it doesn’t matter witch way its flowing we only “remember” it a certain way (or at least that is how I took it).

Ok now lets go ahead and assume this is true, just for the sake of arguing :). Ok so now we can see the future. Lets use an example, you see a young woman walking down the street. She looks both ways to cross the street, but as she steps out onto the road she is struck in the head by a baseball sized comet (hey we might as well make it realistic). You look out your window and you see the lady looking both ways about to cross the street. You open the window and start clucking like a chicken. She stops to look at the funny noise. The comet hits the ground. The lady is saved.

Now if you are really seeing the future why didn’t you see yourself clucking like a chicken to keep the lady safe? I guess the only reasoning for this is that there are many possible futures, and if that is the case how do we find the best one :). And why would we see one future but not the other?

I am using the preconceived idea of future telling from the traditional standpoint (I have not had a vision of the future, so I can’t say how it really is, but I have seen visions so I can guess how they might look).

What do you guys think?
