says i, a physicist!
there are multiple universes, each one encompassing a phisical possibillity of time-space, so, seing as it's possible for any belief to be correct (anything is possible), each and every belief must be true, but weather or not this universe encompasses it is another matter.

What evidence do you have that there are multiple universes? What evidence do you have that anything is possible?

If all beliefs are true, you are not really a physicist.

I think you'd have to prove that it's possible for every belief to be correct in some universe.

And welcome to IIDB, hope you like it here.

If we are gonig to bypass logic and use your premises god also doesn't exist.

it's already been proven by hawkins (i think) that anything that can happen, will happen and i know many religious scientists, i'm simply not one of them. as for the multiple universe (multiverse) theory, it everything that can happen has to happen, there would have to be two different universes for it to happen in, lest the universe contradict itself. and even if you don't believe anything can happen, a god still can (eg: a lifeform with such immense psionic powers that the electro-magnetic pulses extend from it's body (making it psychic) powerfull enough to manipulate things to it's will)
[and the "god doesn't exist" comment would be true in one universe, and not in another]

(and thank you, tenebrus lux, for the warm welcome

Hmm,how could we falsify such a notion, leprichaun_frog?

Isn't there a theory which states that an infinite number of 'universes' start to exist after every choice we make?

So if you're at a fork in the road and you decide to turn left, you turning right would be played out in an 'alternate universe'?

What of the belief that you're wrong and there are no multiple universes? Paradox, paradox...danger Will Robinson! :rolling:
