My point is that saying a universe containing a multiverse is like saying a family member containing the family.
And if youre making a joke, its lost on me. Sorry.
To me, this whole scientific branch is basically someone smoking a joint and saying, "It's all. . . circles in circles in circles, maaaannnn!"
That being said, fractals. There's no reason why you couldn't have universes nested inside super-universes. There's also no reason why every singularity in OUR universe might not itself be a complete universe in its own right. Who knows? Maybe at the heart of every subatomic particle is an entire dimension. There's really no limit to what might constitute reality.
But at some point you have to stop smoking that joint and ask. . . what seems to be the case based on what we can currently observe? And I'm 99% sure that the multiverse theory is purely mathematical rather than scientific.
