No. No one can explain that. Oh sure you can talk about changing the catalyst of the event (his father tells john it was he who sent him, but it was a lie, created by some historian who would like to create a time loop just to mess with the time/space continuum), but that will never explain the one unforgivable bone-headed explaination, especially since his father doesn't know he's his father and how can you be fathered by someone younger than you? Do dog years enter into this somewhere? No, No, just forget this question, wipe it from your brain, if you can do that you can enjoy the movie over and over again. But if you dwell on it your head will explode. I've forgotten about this question for over 20 years, and now it's back again AAARGH.

∙ 12y agoIn T2 Sarah Connor says of the T-101;
"Of all the would-be fathers who came and went over the years, this thing, this machine, was the only one who measured up. The Terminator would never stop. It would never leave him. It would never hurt him. It would never shout at him or get drunk and hit him. Or say it was too busy to spend time with him. And it would die to protect him. In an insane world, it was the sanest choice."
Then in T3 the Terminator admits to John that he will kill him in the future and that he is chosen for the mission because of John's feelings towards the T-101 as a father figure.
Also, in T3 John admits that the T-101 is the closet thing to a father figure that he has.
So, in conclusion yes John Connor definitely views the T-101 as a father figure and furthermore, the T-101 admits that he is chosen for that very reason. Whether the T-101 is sent back in time by the John Connor from the future is totally debatable, though I would imagine so.
Hope this helps

Why did John Connor not die at the end of Terminator 2 since the Future War would not have happened and Kyle Reese would never have gone back in time in Terminator 1?
Answer 1John Connor did not die at the end of Terminator 2 since the script writer wanted to leave people in suspense.Answer 2There are three main reasons I can think of:(1) We Make Our Own Fate: While Terminator 1 works in terms of Novikov self-consistency principle, i.e. past events cannot be changed, Terminator 2 does not hold to that. In Terminator 1, both John Connor and Skynet send back their own progenitors. John sends back his father to sleep with his mother. Skynet sends a Terminator computer chip to lead to Skynet's development. However, in Terminator 2, much of the premise of the story is escape from the requirement to "allow" the nuclear holocaust and future war. John's survival at the end of Terminator 2 demonstrates the success of their mission to end Skynet and divorce themselves from the requirements of time-travel. John chose to not "unexist" -- he made his own fate.(2) Unresolved Paradox Leading to Worse Future:John's survival creates an unresolved paradox. In order to resolve it, Sarah Connor should revert to being a boring waitress, all the people who died in the fights with the Terminator in both 1 & 2 should never have died, and John Connor should never exist. This would set up a world in which something similar to Skynet could be pursued without individuals in the present trying to fight it, leading to a worse future war (since John Connor's expertise came from years of training in advance of the war). Skynet would not have needed to send Terminators to the past since there would be nobody in the past worth killing. Thus it would have been entirely possible for the Connor's prevention of Skynet's creation to have backfired and created a Skynet in a world without a John Connor (which would be worse for humanity). To demonstrate that this resultant worse future could not occur, John is allowed to live, showing that the paradox is left unresolved.(3) Story Eraser: Over the course of Terminator 1 & 2, we came to love Sarah and John Connor and their fight to control and regain their humanity fighting the machines. We became invested in them. If John disappeared and Sarah became a boring waiter it would be a deep blow to the invest that viewers have in the character.As for Answer 1, it not make sense. Keeping John alive does not create suspense; it only shows one of two things (assuming neither of the other three reasons). Either his and the Terminator's attempt to prevent the future war and nuclear holocaust failed OR Kyle Reese was somehow hypnotized to believe he was from some future war and sent back to the past. Since the latter is far less likely, keeping John alive would indicate specifically that the future war was almost necessarily going to happen. We may be suspenseful about upcoming movies, but not the track they would go on. There was alternate ending where we see John Connor and are told he is a Senator in a future and there would be no suspense there, but the three-above reasons would still hold.
