Why Some Scientists Embrace the 'Multiverse

[jem]

which brings us back to this point..

do you belive a troll like Stu...

or this guy...





Leonard Susskind (born 1 January 1940)[2] is the Felix Bloch Professor of Theoretical Physics at Stanford University, and Director of the Stanford Institute for Theoretical Physics. His research interests include string theory, quantum field theory, quantum statistical mechanics and quantum cosmology.[1] He is a member of the National Academy of Sciences,[3] and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences,[4] an associate member of the faculty of Canada's Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics,[5] and a distinguished professor of the Korea Institute for Advanced Study.[6]
Susskind is widely regarded as one of the fathers of string theory,[7] having, with Yoichiro Nambu and Holger Bech Nielsen, independently introduced the idea that particles could in fact be states of excitation of a relativistic string.[8] He was the first to introduce the idea of the string theory landscape in 2003.[9]
Susskind was awarded the 1998 J. J. Sakurai Prize.[10]

Quote from jem:

the reader... has to ask themselves... do you believe a troll name stu lying about science or..
the cofounder of string theory.

1. if you don't want to go with Susskind...

2. you can go with Hawking...

".... In particular a bottom-up approach to cosmology either requires one to postulate an initial state of the universe that is carefully fine-tuned [10] - as if prescribed by an outside agency"or..


you can read the "or: yourself I have given it to you dozens of times.

“If there is only one universe,” British cosmologist Bernard Carr says, “you might have to have a fine-tuner. If you don’t want God, you’d better have a multiverse.” (Discover, December 2008)

here is a another professor on the subject.

Jem, You sure that wasn't British Cosmetologist Bernard Carr. Here's his latest creation:

had you been interested in learning something other than leftist talking points... you might have clicked on the link to Professor Carr's video at the top of the page. I don't think you would have been ignorant enough to mistake him for a cosmetologist.

What does "leftist" have to do with god or no god? After all, Obama is a Muslim.

 

[jem]

in this case... I was just commenting on piezoe's recent defense of the IRS which was similar to the leftist talking points we see on MSNBC.

Its odd the a leftist likes you is able to say Obama is a Muslim. I am willing say say factaully that obama is in favor of the right to kill babies as they are exiting the womb... making him unlikely to be a Christian in the following Christ and not harming children sense of the word... but I have no information he is a currently a Muslim.

I like to keeps facts and opinions separate.

Me, I don't think Obama is a Muslim, I was repeating what so many here say.

I told you to google it as well.
That he is the co founder of string theory is all over the net.

Talking of 'Obama is a Muslim', that's all over the net too. Doesn't mean it's correct.. you idiot. Funny how you have "no information of it" though.

String theory was begun in 1940 when Susskind was 3 years old. How exactly does that make him the co founder.
What's so laughable is you are in any event hyping up Susskind as co founder of a scientific theory which leaves your silly notions of fine-tuning utterly derisible and pointless.

But let's face it, you haven't any kind of a clue what the hell you're doing anyway.

2. you can go with Hawking...

..by all means..

"Because there is a law such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing. Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the universe exists, why we exist. It is not necessary to invoke God to light the blue touch paper and set the universe going." Stephen Hawking
