          Immense hubris on you and whoever else thinks likes this. The intellectually sound answer would be "We can't know for sure until we have evidence".

          As with anything where you are lacking perfect information, we speak in probabilities. So the actual discussion will go "Are there things that could imply multiple universes?"

            That's not the point. You sure you're not the P-zombie when you can't follow 2 sentences worth of text?

            When you lack perfect information, all you can do is reason about probabilities. Are there things that speak for multiverses with different parameters? Yes, the fine tuning argument etc. etc.

            You're in the same camp of morons who insist that there was nothing prior to the big bang because that's as far as our current evidence goes. Suppose this type of moron existed on an isolated planet in the far future with nothing else in its visible universe, this person would incorrectly conclude that the universe was just 1 planet.

            This dumbshit rhetoric kills any speculative discussion

            There is reason to believe a ton of things we have not yet proven exist in all fields of science. Nature is a darkness of information and we have uncovered just a very tiny fraction of it.

            Empirical evidence is required to assert the existence of things, not the nonexistence of things. The nonexistence of things can be assumed when there exists empirical evidence which contradicts that assumption.

            Do you have any empirical evidence to support your believe in things for which there is no empirical evidence?

        Except there is empirical evidence many people sense having lived other lives it has been documented for most of history with people like Plato basically saying that he has a sense that he is good at what he is good at and comes up with the ideas he comes up with because he had some previous existence in a realm of forms where the ideals all originated.

            Empirical evidence is evidence gained from someone's senses and the only way to measure that is through their claims.

            Yes I do, which is why I believe we are both projecting and our own evidence is only useful in describing our own experience which basically renders everyone's sensory experience to different universes with different laws by definition.

            I didn't dismiss it, though, I said to think about how it applies to yourself and the direct experience you know from your own empirical system instead of trying to externalize your projections onto some strawman.

            I think that you don't understand what empirical means and you thought instead of relating to sensory experience like it does, you had some false belief that it was related to quantized measurement since that is the way moronic pop scientists like bill nye tend to use it.

      it's not like it has nothing going for it

      >https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Many-worlds_interpretation

      >In 1985, David Deutsch proposed a variant of the Wigner's friend thought experiment as a test of many-worlds versus the Copenhagen interpretation.[32] It consists of an experimenter (Wigner's friend) making a measurement on a quantum system in an isolated laboratory, and another experimenter (Wigner) who would make a measurement on the first one. According to the many-worlds theory, the first experimenter would end up in a macroscopic superposition of seeing one result of the measurement in one branch, and another result in another branch. The second experimenter could then interfere these two branches in order to test whether it is in fact in a macroscopic superposition or has collapsed into a single branch, as predicted by the Copenhagen interpretation. Since then Lockwood, Vaidman, and others have made similar proposals,[33] which require placing macroscopic objects in a coherent superposition and interfering them, a task currently beyond experimental capability.

    If multiverses turn out to be true, unlimited and every universe has random parameters, then a small fraction would be able to contain matter and a fraction of those would result in life.

    Then an even smaller fraction must also be eternal paradise life universes that are eternally stable and by their parameters is an eternal great and happy environment for the life there. Conversely, there is also eternal torture sim universe where a sadist godlike being spawns from the parameters and creates life to eternally torture. What luck that we did not end up in the second one.

    Multiple Universes exist, but the laws of physics are all exactly the same. OP, I have traveled to other Universes, explored them in depth, and conducted many experiments. The laws are always the same. Including the amount of moronation shown on their science boards and the inevitable presence of argue bots. Argue bots are specifically designed to do nothing else but argue. Endlessly. No matter what. Reducing any reasonable discussion down to drivel. Until everything becomes pointless and suffers false vacuum collapse, eventually causing the Universe to pop out of existence.

    In all Universes it was argued that argue bots were created by a civilization of trans-dimensional beings to counter the proliferation of Universes that keep popping into existence and thus cluttering everything up. It was then further argued that to continue existing a Universe must therefore be inhabited by beings who are not so utterly stupid as to waste their time arguing with argue bots. Of course then the argue bots began to argue with people about this, causing all Universes to vanish into non existence. Thus was born the "Law of Universal moronation" which states that "Everything is moronic, everywhere, at all times, and so we are all fricked."

    Our Universe just happens to be in the middle of this process.

    Impossible to say at the moment because its still hypothetical but I would bet on other universes existing if I had to choose. To me it seems foolish to think that we are in a one of a kind special snowflake universe.

    None, many worlds is a mathematical illusion, not a sign of infinite crazy universes but a sign that quantum mechanics is not understood enough.

    Everything that can happen always happens, even the craziest things like the moon turning into pasta or white suddenly looking purple with dots, yet you always coincidentally stay in the one universe where everything happens according to physics and is not crazy. Makes ya think.

    It requires a creative thought that's out of the box which many are unwilling to produce in this sect. Life has come ---> life comes ---> does it come a different way ---> insert creative thought here 'how?' ---> answer 100% cause I can think of one and there are philosophical thesis better than it can, such as it should or it ought.
