Wait wait wait, how could Comstocks religious visions be caused by tears when the tears were only made possible by Lutece after she had received funding from Comstock (who had presumably already had the religious visions) to create them in the first place?
Also are we assuming that the archangel Colombia is never really a person in any sense but is instead just something created by Comstock to give a face to all of his weird visions that he could sell to the other founders?
Edit: Oh, and on a less serious note why do the Boys of Silence 'see' from the front of their face, shouldn't they detect better from the sides of their heads? But hey, video games.
While most tears merely seem to transcend dimension and space, there are those that also transcend time. It is likely that the Lutece Field did not create a majority of the tears, but rather made them more readily apparent. After all, by the end of the game, Elizabeth can theoretically open a tear to any point in any dimension. Whether it's before or after Lutece's experiments is immaterial, there always might be someone on the other side.
Not sure I follow, Booker needs tears to become Comstock but without Comstock there are no tears. So for Comstock to ever exist he would either:
a. Set Lutece's research in motion motivated purely by his PTSD + Baptism without the interference from tears
b. See tears created by someone in an entirely different reality where the technology used to create them didn't hinge on Comstock funding Lutece
Alright after reading this back to myself I really cant tell if i'm making valid points or just showing why I've never been good at Maths or Science and looking like a total dumbass. In either case, this game is pretty damn good.
