Why I don't believe in parallel universes
#24
RE: Why I don't believe in parallel universes
The 'thing' about parallel or other universes is it makes the apparently weird set of physical constants, laws, properties of spacetime, and amount of matter in our universe that makes it compatible with life aren't so 'weird' if there are a multitude of attempts, and only the seemingly weird universes generate a life form capable of working out that the laws, constants, etc. etc. of our universe aren't constrained to just the subset of life compatible values.

What are the odds of dribbling paint randomly from above on a horizontal canvas and perfectly duplicating the Mona Lisa, on the first and only attempt ??

Tiny, but not zero.

If allowed attempt after attempt for 10^10^10^34 years, you're going to get damn close many, many times.

Now imagine the perfected Mona Lisa, contemplating her manner of 'creation'.

Which one is more 'logical' ?

The randomly getting it right the first time one, or getting it right after quadrillions of quadrillions of attempts ??


(that's either a brilliant analogy, or a turd, haven't decided myself yet Tongue)
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
