A Mathematical Answer To the Parallel Universe Question
diewlasing writes to mention that Oxford scientists have proffered a mathematical answer to the parallel universe question that is gaining some support in the scientific community. "According to quantum mechanics, unobserved particles are described by 'wave functions' representing a set of multiple 'probable' states. When an observer makes a measurement, the particle then settles down into one of these multiple options. The Oxford team, led by Dr. David Deutsch, showed mathematically that the bush-like branching structure created by the universe splitting into parallel versions of itself can explain the probabilistic nature of quantum outcomes."
bitches come and go. we all know this is fake. there is one one reality.
Maybe you should have done a fucking search of the contents of the page before SHIT FUCK? Let's see, ctrl-F, type SCUTTLEMONKEY, yup - highlighted right there at the top. But no, you couldn't be bothered to do that. You had to jump in and start FAGGOT because your tiny little brain didn't BLACK PEOPLE. Have some sympathy for others and don't fucking post here ever again you stupid INJUN. I hope your MAILMAN gets LAID tonight.
...where did this hypothetical creator and his/her/their universe come from?
Just to answer that, the creator didn't 'come from anywhere', He was, is, and is to come. He doesn't have a beginning or an end. As for the universe, that was created by this creator.
Funnily enough, the same question can be asked about evolution, where did the elements come from that created 'the big bang' in the first place? They didn't appear out of thin air.
Also, how can parrallel universes be proved to exist even if you were able to come up with a mathematical 'algorithm'.
