I guess I’ve always been confused by the Many Worlds Interpretation of Quantum Physics and the fact that it’s taken seriously. Like is there any proof at all that universes outside of our own exist?
I admit that I might be dumb, but, how does one look at atoms and say “My God! There must be many worlds than just our one?”
I just never understood how Many Worlds Interpretation was valid, with my, admittedly limited understanding, it just seemed to be a wild guess no more strange than a lot things we consider too outlandish to humor.
Calling Everett’s interpretation the “many worlds interpretation” is like calling a particle’s wave function the “many particles interpretation”—it’s not wrong, but it makes it sound like you’ve got a multitude of separate things when you’ve really just got one thing of a different kind.
