This is a blog, what's the problem?
Here is some text:
Interesting subject. As Deb said I'm more on the techie than spiritual side, so I'll give you my take on that.First of all the science behind multiple universe theories is very sound, and of course is grounded upon the very comprehensive model we have for quantum level physics. We are beings of three spatial dimensions locked in to an artifact of those dimensions known as time. For a dimension to even exist it must be supported, and current theory suggests that there as many as 17 dimensions that support the three we reside in, and clearly those dimensions exist only in our universe. Because we are limited to the dimensions we exist in it is very difficult for us to imagine outside that box, so when we discuss it we tend to think of other dimensional constructs, or universes, in much the same was as our own. We think of other universes as containing alternate versions of ourselves and distinguish them with small variations and quirks, when in reality the differences are so vast that there is little chance anything even remotely similar to ourselves occurring. The chances of the physical laws being anywhere near identical are incredibly small. If they were, and there was a singularity expansion event, then the chances of matter and energy dispersing in identical patterns over billions of years leading to the birth of our Sun are even smaller. If it did, then the chances of an identical Earth forming and undergoing an evolutionary expansion of life, smaller still. If after all that humans did manage to evolve, then the chances of the same societal and genealogical events leading to another you, well non existent really.So my view would be that yes other universes exist, but look nothing like ours, not even close. If there was any form of parallelism at all, then there would have to be a deity involved, which I don't know about you, but for me is certainly a possibility, although excruciatingly unlikely. I would have to conclude that one day we will unlock the secrets of our dimensional cage and use it to our advantage, but without the influence of a deity I would have to also conclude that spirituality will have nothing to do with it.Does that answer your question? Or was I too rambly?
