Do you believe in the multiverse?

>> No.11671176

>>11671168
I'd like to. I always thought the concept of an evolving manifold universe to be quite fascinating but I'm not smart enough to take a solid stance one way or the other beyond my own personal aesthetics.

Yes. Out of all logically possible universes, it would be strange if only ours arbitrarily existed. What's so special about this one that only it exists? When there could've been lots of different kinds of universes?

multiverse is almost mainstream,

many-worlds is quantum woowoo

Which one? There are like 9 fundamentally different meanings of the word.

I like this explanation, very concise. I could get into the anthropic principle, and how lots of nearly miraculous natural phenomena occur in our universe. But that’s never convincing to other people.

>> No.11671680

>>11671671
Most probable: Inflationary multiverse, String theory landscape multiverse, Holographic (not really a multiverse), maybe Brane multiverse

the rest is much more speculative, including many-worlds quantum multiverse

There is a universe where this post exists.
There is also a universe where this post does not exist.
There is also this universe where I (the writer of this post) deliberates the consequences of whether or not this post indeed does exist or does not exist in one of many parallel universes where this post may or may not exist.
