Living multiple lives in different worlds?

[whocares]

According to the "many worlds interpretation", there are an infinite amount of scenarios that are represented in many worlds. Every outcome exists in its own real world and has its own place in time, but cannot interact with each other. In reality, we only get to experience "one" of these outcomes, in a lifetime.



So what if... we actually experience more than "one" world? Since there are infinite outcomes to every situation, I think it's very possible we'll be reincarnated at one point to another world. Even more bizarre, I think it's even possible for us to be reincarnated to another person in the same world, so essentially--everyone you meet is merely yourself in another universe.

Look at Schroedinger's Cat. From the experimenter's point of view, per event the Cat is either dead or alive. But from the Cat's view, it never "remembers" being dead, so in a sense--it's always "alive", since its only memories is being alive. If that's the case, then we will always be alive, if we only remember being alive.

So it's very possible that you'll be that hungry kid in Africa, that cartel member, Hitler or even George Washington. If there are infinite amount of possibilities, I think it's very possible that one person can cycle thru all those possibilities, therefore living an infinite lives, as one person.

I know the Universe is big and all and that that in noway precludes there being many U's, but I've never run across anyone explaining in any way the need for masses of Mass. No one bothers with the "every decision creates a new U" creating Mass. "Oh look I made 40 Solar Systems today!". Uh huh. Make me a measly 1000 tons of gold, 'K?

A quintillion versions of our Sun plus an equivalent number of versions of all the rest of the matter regular/Dark? It just seems farfetched. That doesn't mean that there aren't more U's, just not a quintillion.

Maybe the theory that our "souls" are in multiple bodies simultaneously in this U?

Dude, what are you talking about? First of all, you don't create 40 solar systems, or mass for that matter. Second of all, each option you take doesn't create mass, it only means an alternate reality exists. Each of these worlds exist in its own world and cannot interact with one another.

You don't just turn gold into 1000x its value just because you have a little bit of gold in one universe, 'K?

Sorry, that's not how the interpretation works. Again, you don't "create" a million suns, because each sun exists in its own relative universe. Alternate events cannot interact with each other, so technically there's only one sun per universe.

You mean our souls will reincarnate in multiple bodies? If you think that's the case, tt's very possible that one soul can live through every person in history.

In another world I'm Batman and in another world I fucked Natalie Portman.

And there is a world in which you have done both. However in this one and many others, you have accomplished neither.

i fucking hate the multiverse hypothesis

[Sir Cornwell]

All BS. You want to have your Alternate U's be created, while old ones remain, without accounting for any more mass at all. You just want to skip over that.

Pure unadulterated BS.

Many of the worlds smartest scientists believe in the multi verse theory. I'm not saying its true or not but I don't think someone who sits on zoklet all day has the right to say if a decently accepted scientific theory is true or false. We know less than .001% about our universe.

I'm not against it, as I say I wish just for once that some Physics Phd would even attempt to put into layman's terms some explanation of how a "decision" "creates" a New Universe sans Big Bang and more radiation than a 1000 Supernovas.

Howszat work anywayz?

Instead such shit is never ever mentioned.

In another world I post on zoklet as spectral and in yet another world I post on zoklet as Vizier. Must be destiny.

Wow! Like a Bond Nemesis with a strange accent and mysterious past who's bent on world domination.
