Hi all.

I am not sure whether this post belongs here or in the Science section, but I will post it here to start with.

Does anybody know about/understand the concept/theory of parallel universes?
If so, could you explain it to me in (fairly) simple terms?

Thank you. :)
 
Have you tried the wikipedia article?

But then again; you did ask for it in simple terms. I can't help you much I'm afraid, but I have subscribed to this thread. I find this to be a very interesting topic.
 
Might also want to Google 'Holographic Universe'. I'm not saying it's accurate, agreed-upon pseudo-science, but it is very fascinating. Kind of like mood rings.

Also, you might want to watch 'The Matrix' a couple of times, just because.

after reading the very long post, i kinda thought that defining the time as being able to have negative values is something that contradicts my belief.

my "instincts" says :
1. that what exists before t 0 is out of the question and undefinable.
2. that t is not limitless, but it has bounds and certain constant threshold
3. So that -~ < t < +~ is not at all the same as 0 < t < k where t and k are certain positive integer and the latter is a constant one.
4. this t boundary defines the dimension of time.
5. t is like electric current flowing one way from one side of plate (0) to the other (k) via an alternator (the illusion of time); theres only one way in a normal condition but provided enough energy you could reverse flow the time(see the history of time used later in judgment day). And the energy required to reverse flow the time is equal to the energy of the creation itself (only the creator can do it).

i have no idea how to apply those "instincts" to the M-theory..:D

as for the parallel world, I have no idea whether it contradicts in anyway with religious beliefs of any kind of religion?? :-/

I would just think of my other self in the parallel world as my twin brother, who happens to have his own responsibility and life line..if he was to exist..

:w:

Thanks, guys ... although I feel more confused than ever now ... :D

Let us assume that there are parallel universes ... does the theory say that we all live in each of those universes? I.e. there would be a glo1, glo2, glo3 ... glo infinite???

according to the article the parallel world could even be a world with totally different physical laws than that what we have right now..

so i think i could safely infer that if our "existance" in this world has a direct correlation with that exact parallel world, we would probably be half dead by now cause we would exist (in our world) but at the same time(in that parallel world) not exist...

so i think.. my other self in the parallel world is just like my twin brother, who happens to have his own "existance" (life line), "awareness" and "will" hence responsibility.. if he was to ever exist..

Omg! There is a possibility that there could be 2 of me? Noooooo way, God wouldn't do that to everyone twice!;D

Plus if that were true.....I would have twice as many reps on Islamicboard:hmm: Thus giving you the scientific proof that there is only 1 universe:D

God made everything! If there are more universes, HE made those too!

I do not think there is any evidence of other universes. We cannot measure things outside of our universe. :hmm:

That is true brother! I was sayng that as well, ust trying it with humor....I am trying to be more humorous in loo of whats going on with me. sorryimsad
 
If it were true wouldn't this also negate free will? and therefore negate any reason for punishment?

To understand parallel universe you need to understand Quantum physics (science of the tinyest), and in particular the property of particles and waves. There property is best understood by double slit experiment.

Instead of explaining, watch this video.

In short, we are made up of these weird particles (electrons) and they can be at two places at once as the experiment proves and so therefore our Earth, universe and everything else (also made of these particle) can be at two places at once and hence the weirdness "parallel universe". :hiding: This is what i know of "things being at two places at once" but mark my words, there is more to this than meets the eye. :p

Hope this helps/ Insh'Allah.
