They are not afraid to speak evil of dignitaries, 11 whereas angels, who are greater in power and might, do not bring a reviling accusation against them before the Lord. - Depravity of False Teachers - 12 But these, like natural brute beasts made to be caught and destroyed, speak evil of the things they do not understand, and will utterly perish in their own corruption, 13 and will receive the wages of unrighteousness, as those who count it pleasure to carouse in the daytime.

When Albert Einstein proposed his theory of relativity, it became an accepted fact that traveling into the future is possible but not into the past. That doesn’t stop Dr. Who. The famous fictional character is the star of the longest running science-fiction television series in the world. He can travel into the past as easily as into the future.
