Yeah, I believe why not, should there only be one universe? - but which one are we talking about? I don't believe in the many universes the theory that every time a choice is made the universe splits into 2, like 1 where this happened and the other where it didn't. I mean, this would mean that by simply not doing something a completely new universe, with all the matter, energy, but in a slightly different state suddenly comes into being. I guess the only way around this is that they existed side by side and had already been in existence from the start of the big bang, and only at a certain time when a choice was made, they became different and split from each other. But that doesn't help - what about choice? Does the 'universe' already know in the beginning how many multiverses it needs? Which one of the multiverses do we experience after our choice?
