What confuses me is when I hear, "One day, we will be sent information from the future, they will send it to the past to us.", but that means the future HAS happened for the people who sent us the information. But say we was to send information back to humans in the past, who would be the future people, us, or the people who sent us the information? Because this is so confusing, I will end with, I hope one day it is possible, but right now it seems too complicated. If anything, bending space and time seems like the most realistic way to do it.

If some one where to send a message to us from the future?
If this is to be possible the message would have to be able to go through X amount of dimensions (changes) and still be able to deliver the message in the energy form for the space time dimension it is meant for.
That would mean that what ever the message is made up of would have to be very very intelligent and powerful.
I can prove it quite simply that a dimension of energy or matter can't travel back in time. With a simple mathematical equation.
-5 + 9 = +4
+4 can never become the old equation again. Because +4 don't = -5 + 9 any more.
