Instead of discussing each and every episode of the anime, we should focus on the lessons being taught to us by the series. Following extracts from Steins Gate 0 beautifully convey the message to the ones trying to acquire divine powers (such as time travelling) and warns them how that would backfire at them and eventually lead to their demise.
The universe has a beginning, but no end — Infinite.
Stars have beginnings too, but meet an end of their own making — Finite.
History has shown that those with wisdom are the greatest fools of all.
The fish of the sea know not the world of the land.
...
Were they to possess wisdom, they too would experience decline.
For humans to exceed the speed of light is more foolish than for fish to start living on land.
These words are meant for those who dare to defy Natures final warning — An epigraph for their stubbornness!
"The universe has a beginning, but no end — Infinite"
Time does not end. Progression never halts. Time has a start yet can never evidently end. The limitlessness alludes to the way that time isn't just an volatile stream of occasions but in addition also contains an "infinite" measure of potential outcomes. It is obviously likewise an immediate association with how space is a purposeful metaphor for time. Both have a beginning however no end.
"Stars have beginnings too, but meet an end of their own making — Finite"
We as humans contain certain "powers" or wills. These forces at last lead to our destruction. The possession of powers is a tragic poison. It is likewise an immediate association with how a star is like that of a human. Both have their very own powers, and that both lead to their own destruction.
"History has shown that those with wisdom are the greatest fools of all"
History has demonstrated to us that the wisest, the smartest that tend to make big changes by separating themselves from society are the silliest. Being "insightful" is the attribute only fit for the sole observer. The shrewd individual may trust he is insightful in light of the fact that he strongly believes in his standards, while another person might say that he is the inverse of that. This is the reason why those wise people, the people to use their ideals to change a portion of the world, are the most foolish. Wisdom is one of the powers referred in line "meet an end of their own making"
"The fish of the sea know not the world of the land. Were they to possess wisdom, they too would experience decline"
The fish in the ocean are ignorant, and ignorance is a bliss. They don't have a clue about the world aside the ocean and due to this they don't have that intelligence that people or humankind have. They don't contain the "power" to destroy themselves. If they were to gain this wisdom, it will lead to their destruction.
"For humans to exceed the speed of light is more foolish than for fish to start living on land"
It is more ridiculous that man could transcend the divine powers than for a fish to a start living on the ground. The probability that man will accomplish such powers is as stretched as the possibility of a fish picking up the insight to live out of the water. In the above line, "humans to exceed the speed of light" equates as a metaphor for a divine power.
"These words are meant for those who dare to defy Natures final warning — An epigraph for their stubbornness"
This can be considered a warning to all mankind that if you overstep the boundary into the world of infinite power, it will ultimately lead to your demise. You will perish, as will all those who have attained that power.
