[QUOTE="Kairos, post: 180367, member: 10263"] I am saying there exists ZERO evidence that either there exists multiple universes [I]or[/I] that the past actually exists. All the evidence points towards there being just one universe which simply exists, no past and no future, only the present moment relative to any given point in the universe. Multiple universes is an unprovable idea taken from science fiction because atheists can't accept the consequences of the Big Bang. It's not that I discount the possibility, but as a person with a scientific background, I require proof, not applied metaphysics passing as "science". As far as multiple universes.. that's simply one interpretation of quantum physics, and not even particular satisfying parsimony. The other interpretation, that there is but one universe in actuality, and lots of possible states and outcomes (potency), makes the least number of assumptions. But, again, atheists don't like that because it confirms what theologians had been arguing since the middle ages: act and potency. And as far as time travel being possible.. a place has to actually exist for you to travel to it. In philosophy, this is a question of realism. Is the past a real thing? On the one hand, you have the direction taken by Parminides in which past, present, and future exist in a totality of an unchanging universe. On the other hand, you have the direction of Heraclitus in which only the present moment exists, and that the past is erased in the present moment (flux), and the future is yet to exist. Between those two you have Aristotle with his four causes coupled with act and potency. I think that is the most plausible direction, myself, and science tends to support this. [/QUOTE]
