The theory of parallel universes is not just maths – it is science that can be tested

It’s an infinity thing, you wouldn’t understand.

Perhaps parallel universe parking will be the Next Big Thing to replace the defunct Global Warming honey wagon.

There’s nothing like the universe to bring you down to earth.

Imagine if the next frontier won’t be traveling to the stars but instead traveling to other earths.

Wow. I hope my butt isn’t as fat in the other universes!

Indeed, and at some point we will have a car that will
do it at the push of a button...

The act of opening the box allows us to follow one of the possible future histories of our cat, including one in which it is both dead and alive.

I think the cat's point of view might be different, I guess it all comes down to the reference frame.

String Theory, String Theory, wherefore art thou String Theory?

Or better yet, wherefore art thou experimental proof of String Theory?

Hmmm. I think therefore I am, but in regard to
“multiverse” thought, if the idea “may or may not be true” is a correct statement, then it is not testable in science-after all, the test results may or may not be true...

See where the theory of relativity in rationalization of silly ideas leads? Liberals (leftists, not true liberals) reside in that reality ( which in reality, is null).

Indeed, scripture tells us that there is a “multi-verse”, the temporal and the heavenly. The temporal is passing, the heavenly is eternal, chose wisely!

The CERN large hydron collider threw us into an evil mirror mirror parallel universe where the US spies on it’s citizens and supports muslim extremists while Russia lectures us on Christian values. It’s the only logical explanation.

Mathematically, a quantum mechanical state is a sum (or superposition) of all possible states. In the case of the Schrödinger’s cat, the cat is the superposition of “dead” and “alive” states.

the thing is the cat to be any state in a linear line between the 2 points ...alive...and... dead.....because in must go frrom alive to dead and all states beween

But the cat does not go to any state not on that line beween alive and dead..it does not go to ever posable state..

A brick could fall and crush the cat in the box ..or a vet could intervene and resuscitate the cat....all that is possible

but that’s not part of the line between points life and death

sometimes parallel universe theories presented is every possibility existing at the same time that’s not true

just like a cat it’s only possibilities between the two points on its path...that it will in fact exist in

Theoretically, the box could be crushed but you could
still open it and find the cat alive...

If a freeper posts, but it’s not clear that he thought first, does he exist?
