How is he sending Kyle ? How does that make any sense he should not be even alive? Who is his father if he is sending kyle reiss?
WTF i hate how they throw in time travel and then do whatever the fuck they want and say oh its time travel it makes sense....

Well I suppose that the only way this could really happen is in dimensional terms with a fractal timeline in which from whatever time you travel back to a new time line fractures off the original and moves towards its own and unwritten future. This leaves the original timeline in tact.
Using this logic, Kyle may NOT have been the original father but thanks to his mother grew up to be a very similar person as the original.
I do see what you are saying and that is a very huge hole in the story. If Kyle wasn't sent back to father John then John will never exist to send back Kyle, resulting in Cyberdyne not even giving a fuck who Sarah Connor is.
