So where does multiverse theory fit into your adolescent mentality?

Thanks for proving to your buddy Buck there’s absolutely nothing conclusive about the center of the universe, one way or another though! ;)

I can “see” that there is no “center” to the surface of a sphere (there is a center to a sphere, yes? but that is a different and unrelated matter, no?). For this analogy to have any significance, FAQA.ORG would have to be proposing that the Universe is a two dimensional spherical surface, and that we can neither look into (towards the center of) the sphere nor “out” from the sphere, but only along the surface of the sphere. Otherwise, I don’t know how it is helpful (conceptually speaking).

Is this the latest state of scientific thinking on the nature of the Universe? Einstein would be amazed.
