Planets? Other Universes. Universes.

Though it's interesting to know that even our prince, Kripke, thought that Lewis had badly/hilariously (depends how you look at it) misinterpreted Kripkean semantics and went as far as committing to modal realism.

Modal logic gets pretty boring after a while (not to mention that most physicists or mathematicians will have no idea what you're talking about). Kinda useless outside of the analytic brainfarting machine. Learn something like algebra/analysis instead.

First of all, Lewis >> Kripke.

Modal realism is bonkers, but only because metaphysical possibility is not a real thing.

On the other had, the many worlds of Hugh Everett are legit, because physical possibility is indeed a thing.

Oh gawd, you just went full retard here, man. Lewis pales, PALES, in comparison to what Kripke did.

>Modal realism is bonkers, but only because metaphysical possibility is not a real thing. On the other had, the many worlds of Hugh Everett are legit, because physical possibility is indeed a thing.
This is even sillier than exclaiming that Lewis > Kripke. Metaphysical possibility and necessity are one of the bare bones of our and many other, if they exist, realities. It's obvious to nearly anyone who has read N&N (provided the reader is free of brain cancer); then again these properties are not necessarily the most 'exotic' or interesting properties of our Universe. In any event, you're conflicting modal realism with Kripkean semantics: the former is a metaphysical thesis, basically equivalent to Everett's many worlds interpretation of QM, and the latter is a framework for arguing about possibility and necessity. It's possible that you could have written "Lewis << Kripke" instead of "Lewis >> Kripke", had you had the appropriate background to make such a judgement call. It is necessary that there's a model of Peano Arithmetic that makes the statement "1 + 1 = 2" true, and so on.

>because physical possibility is indeed a thing.
No, no--physical possibility is a metaphysical possibility in disguise. You're basically saying "It is possible that other universes exist", which is just a metaphysical claim about reality, i.e. physical stuff.

You sound deeply confused.

Kripke's work in formal semantics (Kripke semantics) is obviously important, but his philosophical contributions (N&N, etc.) have led the field down a blind alley.

There's a reason David Lewis is the most cited person in philosophy by far. He engages with a wide range of core issues - causation, probability, modality, supervenience, convention, propositional attitudes, foundations of mathematics, etc - and sets the agenda for subsequent research on those subjects.

And no, I'm not saying "It is possible that other universes exist". I'm saying they do exist (as macroscopic branches), and they causally interact with each other at the quantum level - e.g., as interference in a double slit scenario. The probabilities of QM derive from self-locating uncertainty in a branching universe.

Analytic philosophers are more or less of the same, unanimous opinion that N&N was essentially right. But hey, as a guy on a Chinese cartoon board you might as well be right in dismissing N&N.

>There's a reason David Lewis is the most cited person in philosophy by far
Yeah, because it's largely enticing poppycock. As I said, Lewis' contributions (in depth *and* range) pale in comparison to Kripke's. His Convention, as far as I know, was a PhD thesis which isn't all that relevant or insightful. Nor is he taken seriously in foundations of mathematics. Probability? What on earth are you smoking?

>And no, I'm not saying "It is possible that other universes exist"
Yes, you are. Any claim of physical possibility implies metaphysical possibility.

>I'm saying they do exist (as macroscopic branches), and they causally interact with each other at the quantum level - e.g., as interference in a double slit scenario.
It's a pretty cool goodnight story to tell your kids as they fall asleep and all, but you're up against some 7+ interpretations of QM. And it has to noted that many worlds interpretation is not a theory but yet another metaphysical thesis, along with modal realism.

MWI isn't an "interpretation" of QM - it *is* QM. It's what you get when you take the theory literally. The alternatives are alternatives to QM - Bohm, GRW, etc. If these other approaches ever attain the virtues of QM - easy integration with special relativity, etc. - then I'm more than happy to switch. Bohmian mechanics certainly has a lot going for it on an intuitive level - unfortunately it requires things like absolute simultaneity.

Regarding Kripke/Lewis, you clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Lewis was easily the most influential philosopher of his generation. That's just a fact.
