Couple dozen? I'd imagine that to be a vast understatement.
|
All it would take is a simple change for me not to exist. If my mother had never gotten a job in New Mexico, if gamma globulin had been discovered a few years later, etc.
|
This is true, but there's also so many other yous there would be from changes made since you were born. -nodnod-
|
*looks confused* Huh?
|
If there's new ones with every choice or event, then you would've also been branching out towards infinity selves with every choice made in your lifetime. Not just within your own, either. Ever choice by every person in the entire world, and whatever other beings in other worlds there are, each one would call for a new universe in this theory. Many would have the same yous as other universes do, because YOU haven't changed between them, but other things have.
|
Oh, I get you now. Like if I decided on a different major, never went to college, moved to another city, etc.
|
Yep! The number would be a hell of a lot bigger.
|
*muses* Perhaps we are all born in one and only one universe and everything spreads out from there.
|
Seems like it would be pretty all or nothing with this sort of thing, if you ask me. Even without new ones for little choices (which I kinda assumed from the start), we're talking an insane number.
|
But there's room enough for all of them!
|
True! But... So many!
|
Well, since we'll never know but one, it's cool.
What are your feelings on different universes based on TV shows and books? |
A very interesting idea. One that brings in even MORE universes! Possible, I suppose.
|
Heheh, I like the idea myself.
|
Is a very bueno thought. -nods-
|
*chuckles* Imagine a universe with Doctor Who, or Stargate.
