Tentatively Christian; looking for a reasonable discussion

Technically it is different from the known universe. It is possible to have an infinitely many different types of stuff (not just physical stuff) that will never interact with the physical stuff. Since we, being made of physical stuff, can never interact with this supposed other stuff, we can never prove or disprove other stuff exist. Thats where Occam's razor comes in and eliminates it. Or you can use the pragmatic approach (a favorite of mine), who gives a fuck if other stuff might exist if we can never know it.
