Chris,
I am with this list for a decade or so, and learned that this group accepts
a negative
position as well, not only 'hosanna' to the 'officially (here) accepted one.
So here it
comes:
In my (heretic? and personal) view
1. universes in the Multiverse are not necessarily identical, indeed "all
possible" (see
Stathis' reply to you) means IMO diversity vs identity, so I find it
unfounded that "in
all 'other' universes the 2nd law should flourish" (indeed I consider it
even here some
(reductionist) model-related (and restricted) deduction from our limited
observational
skills and their 'historic' (applied math based) explanation).
2. In my view of an interactive wholeness "we" exist in here (if really) -
in relation to
the TOTAL of THIS universe - a transfer into different background
(universe?) would
necessarily discontinue our complexity (uncuttable total 'self?') we are
here.
What may happen 'there' (if...) is at best an assumption and I would not
draw further conclusions (definitely not as accepted facts!) by building
further levels on unfounded
assumptions - no matter how fit they may be to a theory we favor.
You (and others) may believe whatever one wants to, you asked a question and
I
provided a (rather negative) reply. "MY" opinion.
