24 - Have Each of Us Already Died?

Poll question 24. If we are to believe Everett's Many Worlds Interpretation, does that mean there are parallel universes where each of us have already died? To read along, go to http://imaginingthetenthdimension.blogspot.com/2008/11/tenth-dimension-polls-...

This doesn't make sense. Nothing happens entirely by chance; everything is the result of cause and effect. To imply that another outcome could have happened for any event is to dismiss the cause and effect that led up to that event. If this theory were true, there would have to be another universe somewhere in which everything improbable happened. Imagine living in that universe!

@451ianDragonist I would suggest you try reading the following book: The Many Worlds of Hugh Everett III: Multiple Universes, Mutual Assured Destruction, and the Meltdown of a Nuclear Family. It's a very coherent discussion of how we could think that any particular version of our observed universe was inevitable, and yet there is still a fabric outside of our spacetime in which every possible branch really exists, just as real as the universe you see around you right now.

Thanks for writing!

Is it possible that there are other parallel universes dont follow the same laws of physics that we perceive in this universe_

[10thdim]

@nemesisre309 Yes, some physicists call this the "multiverse landscape". Within my approach to visualizing the dimensions, moving to a different "point" in the 7th dimension and above would be moving to one of those other universes with different basic physical laws. Also: some theorists propose that our d3 brane universe is embedded within a d7 brane - a related idea. Once you get to one of those other universes, they would have their own unique six dimensions, but be inaccessible from our own.

I think we are the infinity of consciousness put in one timeline. Because observing that there is an infinity of possibilities, that means in every timeline you can look different, born in different place, make different decisions be a comletely different person. In that case there is no individual "soul" only infinite consciousness projection in one timeline.

@Justas923 Thanks for writing! Sounds like you'd be interested in entries like these:

ever thought about how the "present" doesn't really exist? because faster than we can think aobut something or notice it, the moment is the past or the future. live life to the fullest. you only get 1. or call it quits, either way, i won't judge you

Yes, Im dead.

@10thdim this video is totally bullshit.

[drone8888]

@451ianDragonist You have not experienced anything not in the first 3 dimensions. If you have the courage, you will seek to initiate yourself using one of the many ways available. When you clean the grime off your magnet (body), you will be able to feel in infinitely familiar ways; things unimaginable. Cause and effect are trivial with NO ego, or concerns and the answer to EVERYTHING that cannot be explained in this 3D theatre we live in. I could try, but that's not the point.

@LOVEuBlink182

I think that's a terrifying thought, because that means there's an alternate reality where I suffer most prodigiously. I step forward two seconds too soon and I get hit by a drunk driver, etc. I'd prefer to think that these infinite alternate realities are only "possibilities" that blink out of existence when you do something and eliminate all other possibilities by your action.

[dunnono00]

@OZPerpetue

Who knows. Maybe all those alternates are all just a facet of you, one side of a single being. Maybe when you die, you understand this and calmly experience what all the others do at once.

Where Can I get a link to the first poll question? I'm a layman when it comes to this stuff but I'm extremely open minded about these things and would love to have conversations about these things

[TatsujinSan]

@TatsujinSan My choices come from everything I experienced being filtered through the physical properties of my brain. If the experience COULD be different then all previous events could not yield my existence as too many other things would need to change in order to alter anything I experience. It is contingent upon the position of every other atom in the universe since the expansion.

[TatsujinSan]

Probabilities are not actuals. Potential outcomes are not outcomes. There is only this universe and I guarantee you will never obtain any compelling evidence to the contrary.

Multiverse theory is absurd enough let alone inserting the concept that there could exist a universe containing another version of me that would somehow be CAPABLE of making a choice differently under the same physical circumstances when those circumstances are dependent on physical law.
