In the end, there is no way to know for sure what other universes are out there, or what life they may hold. But that will likely not stop physicists from exploring the possibilities, and in the process learning more about our own universe.

"...there is no way to know..."

"...that will likely not stop physicists from exploring the possibilities..."

I agree that there is no way to know. Therefore, there can be no "exploring." What they are doing is speculating about the existence of something which cannot be proven or disproven. How does this help us to "learn more about our own universe"? This is not science. It is not even science fiction. It is meaningless fantasy, a total waste of time.

A thesis which, by definition, cannot be verified, quantified or falseified. And they call this science?

They saved themselves with the ending sentence (fragment);

There is no shortage of material to study or contemplate, already "here".

What is religion, if not a belief that there is a separate universe of which we can be conscious, and in which we can spend time?

Well duh!

Many who have had a near death experience witnessed the many apertures that led to and away from the light.

They weren't going to or from the same locations for heaven's sake!

Every time I see Obama reading from his teleprompter...

It is obvious, there are alternate universes.

Modern cosmology has become a religion. It requires belief in things that are not verifiable. Deviance from the official dogmas means expulsion. Adherents continue to believe in spite of valid rational proofs that they are wrong.

Is there any observational evidence???? I thought the Scientific Method started with
1. Unexplained fact or phenomenon.
2. Fact gathering ........

Don’t fall into the trap of intellectual masturbation.

For Christians, I don’t believe that it’s possible to read the Bible and come to a conclusion that God could have created more than one....

Here’s my theory:

Our universe was supposedly started by a big bang.

There are potentially unlimited other universes out there...they may have started up with their own bang.

More than one bang = gang bang.

You heard it here first.

That settles it.

I have now completely abandoned my search for a missing skate key that I lost in 1959.

You mean there is a universe out there where I am a multi-billionaire, have beautiful women hanging around me, and am surrounded by expensive good tasting alchoholic drinks?

Dang! I was born in the wrong universe!

Could our multiverse be one of many multiverses?

There is one universe and numerous realities.
Sheesh.. How hard is this to figure out?
