Quotes about Multiverse
The evidence in this universe for design - or, if you will, the fine-tuning that cannot be explained by chance or by 'enough time' - is so compelling that the only way around it is to suggest that our universe is only one of an infinite number of universes.
- Dennis Prager
Science predicts that many different kinds of universe will be spontaneously created out of nothing. It is a matter of chance which we are in.
- Stephen Hawking
The idea of 10 dimensions might sound exciting, but they would cause real problems if you forget where you parked your car.
- Stephen Hawking
It is crazy to postulate a trillion (causally unconnected) universes to explain the features of one universe, when postulating one entity (God) will do the job.
- Richard Swinburne
The whole drift of my education goes to persuade me that the world of our present consciousness is only one out of many worlds of consciousness that exist.
- William James
Multiverse Some cosmologists speculate that our observable universe is just an expanding bubble in a much wider sea of energy, which is also expanding. Since this wider universe contains many other bubbles in addition to ours, it is often called a multiverse. The Borde-Guth-Vilenkin theorem also applies to the multiverse as a whole, not just to the individual bubbles within it. Thus, even if there is a multiverse, it cannot be eternal in the past but must have had a beginning.
- William Lane Craig
Adopting the multiverse hypothesis to explain our ordered observations would thus result once more in a strange sort of illusionism.
- William Lane Craig
