FYI. Something you might want to incorporate into some Sunday sermon. I consider this “The Great Multiverse Crapshoot.” BTW, I understand that the force of gravity if just the very smallest bit larger or smaller would have prevented the formation of the universe. The percentage is astronomically small. I believe I saw a show on TV that stated that the percentage difference of just 1 over the total number of grains in the sand in the world in the force of gravity would have made our universe impossible.
Where did this notion of a multiverse first arise? DC Comics trotted out this notion beginning in the 1950s when they rebooted a number of their superheroes comic books and eventually had cameo/guest appearances from the 1930s/1940s incarnations of the characters.
Later as DC’s acquisitions grew, the rolled the other publishers’ characters into parallel worlds.
Then in the 1980s, they smashed them all together with a cataclysmic 12-issue storyline.
Does such “science” come from comic book lore or were others dreaming along these lines before the 1950s?
