: The Light6: Amy isn't a sensible example to choose. The Doctor himself reckoned there was something unique about Amy's memory. When (aged 7) she was talking to the Doctor, she said her mother used to put faces on apples, so she did remenber having had parents. As has been pointed out above, however, the clerics who forgot their comrades' existences didn't question why (seemingly) such a small group had been sent on that mission. Eventually, there was only a single soldier who could see nothing odd about being alone on a mission that obviously called for at least a squad. The point, which has already been made very thoroughly, is that the situation which results from someone being absorbed by a crack is '''not '''the situation you would get if that person really had never existed. If you think there are no real inconsistencies, you need to explain why and you need to do that for all the apparent inconsistencies others have already pointed out. --[[Special:Contributions/78.146.181.206|78.146.181.206]] 21:35, September 13, 2011 (UTC) | : The Light6: Amy isn't a sensible example to choose.

Even though evidence of a person's existence remains, they still never did exist. It's a complicated paradox, but if, before ''The Big Bang'' but after ''Cold Blood'', the Doctor and Amy had decided to travel back to Leadworth during Amy's childhood, Rory still wouldn't be there because he never existed. Still, despite the fact that he never eisted, there is a photograph of him at Amy's house, the Doctor still has his engagement ring, and River Song still exists. It doesn't quite make sense, but its a paradox and paradoxes never make sense.[[User:Icecreamdif|Icecreamdif]] 22:43, September 13, 2011 (UTC) | |||
