Do you think the Multiverse (consisting of multiple universes) exists? Why or why not?
The idea of a multiverse fits a set of equations that gave birth to this idea. It is a fun idea -- I like sliders. But it states that every action creates a new universe. So I move my arm from my keyboard to my nose -- how many air molecules have I disturbed? Millions. Of universes from that motion. Okay. So let's say that it is a 'major event'. Does that mean that I turning right or left creates a universe. My event is major? What about Hitler who impacted millions of people? Does a person on another planet consider that a major event is his existence. Does our star exploding constitute a major event-amongst the billion, billion, billion galaxies of start? I think that this idea is simply thinking we are the center of the universe.
because the chance of all the conditions to be exactly right for the big bang are very slim. If there were thousands or more universes, the probability of universes existing at all are increased.
With the right skewed equations, you can give "evidence" of anything. It isn't a proof and doesn't give me any reason to believe it's more than speculation. Lack of evidence against something is not evidence for something - it's merely a lack of evidence
I mean the potential is just rad and the theory is entertaining. Not much evidence. Just a guess but it just doesn't feel real enough. Also I think its funny how it looks like people are voting yes because they want it to be true.

The microwave background radiation map is thought to contain a "bruise" which may indicate an overlap of at least one other universe. investigation is ongoing,
I think black holes lead to a tunnel into another universe but that is just a guess. Obviously, there is a lot that science still doesn't know, and won't know for a long long time. The great hayday for physics was probably the first half of the 20th century with nuclear, relativity, and quantum physics. The forefront of science now is biological like genetics, and brain activity, and stem cells. One question that I see often in debates between creationists and atheists is the question "why is there something instead of nothing?"
Another interesting concept that, to me, is amazing is life itself. The second law of thermodynamics says that all matter tends toward disassociation. Rocks break down, gases and liquids disassociate. However, life runs in the opposite direction. When the earth coalesced about 4.5 billion years ago, it must have been sterile. At some point some inorganic molecules got together and self replicated. We are made of inorganic chemicals like carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, etc. but yet we live and even reproduce.
Of course, life could have come from outer space, as we are all stardust anyway.
sorry to get off the subject.
