For some of our theories I feel a lyric from The Who may be relevant: They call me the seeker I been searchin low and high I wont get to get what I'm after Till the day I die At least when we consider final theories which relate to existence of things beyond this universe, the soul, and afterlife ,etc. It may be we won't get observational proof of such things while we are constrained to this reality. (Not unlike using quantum suicide to find the many-worlds). Jason -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
