I remember reading about the Robert Nozick (*Philosophical Explanations*) closest continuer theory* in the 80s. Maybe it can be connected to many worlds. (Sean? :)) * https://www.iep.utm.edu/nozick/#H4 I had this idea earlier today. Neil Turok is a proponent of the cyclic universe. So what if the universe goes forward in time, backwards in time, repeats (but each repeat is different from the others). Thus one gets the many words from the cyclic universe. @philipthrift -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
