Dimensional or time travel. which is it?
In my research of Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVP) I have discovered that spirit, alien, or demonic voices, have the limited ability to know ahead of time what is going to happen, or what I am going to ask. I can not determine if this ability is associated with a dimensional shift, or their traveling into the near future on the time line. I understand that such entities are not bound by time as we know it, and the dimension or realm they live in is one of energy that is not in time with ours. Although they are aware of our time, do you think they can manipulate it, or travel to different points in our time? If so, how? And how far into our future can they actually see, or know what is going to occur? Please, serious answers only.

that thought experiment sounds like alot of gooblygoo mumbo jumbo manuer to me. If they were unaware of our time then how could they affect it in any meaningful way? Beyond that, time travel in the way you describe has been proven to be impossible (we are ALL traveling through time right now this second-- into the future).

In all honesty, regardless of what you believe, time travel is not possible by anyone. Theoretical physicists have documented this ad infinitum. Our very own GPS satellites can attest to this due to time dilation due to relativitic effects of gravitational fields.
Dimensional travel, while interesting on the surface, also has many physical flaws in logic. I would encourage you to study hard physics and fact based logic before venturing into EVP or other faith-based (i.e., non-provable) phenomenon. Otherwise, people will just poke fun.
Remember, there are tens of thousands of people out there who understand the theory of relativity and the spectrum of physics, so your theories have to be bullet proof.
I would also question the sources of your information for EVP or anything else along those lines. Observable science and being able to discern and replicate outcomes from identifiable data, not interpretation of white noise is what will prove your points.

Forgive my answer, but your question immediately assumed that time travel is a fact.
No, it's just NOT possible, that is, if you're thinking of time travel as like going back to a certain point in history, or going forward a certain period. Time in physics is simply the period required for an event or sequence of physical events to occur, while history is a sequence of events as our minds remember it, a record so to say. In other words, the past and future are only states of mind.
The sun's light takes eight minutes to reach the earth, so we see the sun now not as it is now, but as it was eight minutes ago. But that doesn't suggest anything about the possibility of time travel, we are simply witnessing a past event, we are not going back to it. Just like watching a movie.
About the future, if you can theoretically achieve the speed of light, then time will completely stop according to your relative frame of reference. For example, if you travel to the edge of the Milky Way at the speed of light, to the observer, it took you 10,000 years. But to you, it took NO time at all because time stopped for you. So you will feel like you reached 10000 years into the future in an instant when in fact it took you 10000 years. So you didn't actually travel to the future. You were just not aware of the 10000 years that went by. Just like Rip van Winkle who slept for 20 years and he felt it was just a nap.
