Wauw, this is so cool! I mean, I'm really interested in this subject, so the fact that I can read about it, here, on the BD, I find is really cool.
But I do have a question: Why do most of you don't believe in a Parallel Universe?
It's true, there is no real evidence, non that you can hold in your hand, that is, that says that they exist. But there's also no evidence that says that the
don't exist!
I believe that they exist. I always did. I don't understand why they wouldn't.
I believe in Parallel Universeses almost precisly the way that most people describe it here.
Quote:
Parallel universes, to my mind, would "branch off" from this universe whenever any sort of choice is made. For every possible thing that could happen, there would be a parallel universe in which it did happen. Some would be almost identical to our universe, distinguished only by a small detail, while others would be totally different.

I agree with Elennar in the theory that alternate universes would branch out from out from our own. I believe that our universe would be the main universe and alternate universes would be created based on the choices we made in our own universe. For instance you come to a fork in the road, you go right, an alternate universe is created where you went left. The universe where you go left still has the same history as our world but it is changed by the fact that you went left. If at any time ME had existed the ME parallel universe would be in the same time frame as ourselves.(critisicm welcome, feel free to point out where you think I'm wrong)

I agree with this. Completely. Almost. There's one think that I don't agree with. And that's the point were TheSquireof Aragorn says that our universe is the main one, were all others divide from.
Why should our universe be the main one? I find this, to be honest, a bit egocentric (this is NOT a personal attack on Aragorn!!). That's also why I don't understand it when people think that our universe is the only one.
I find it egocentric, but maybe, when someone explains is reasons to me, I'll think otherwise.
But that's all a bit off-topic, isn't it? I love the idea of Middle Earth being a Parallel universe. I think that is really possible. Or at least an universe that is in some/most ways similar to ME. Why not? I like to think that way, I don't realy have a reason. Maybe it gives me comfort, to think that the world, and the people, that I've fallen in love with, really does exist. But that is just the way I think and feel, and everybody has the right to think the way he or she wants.
Aethelwine.
