>Supporters of the multiverse theory say that critics are on the wrong side of history. < Since I view the multiverse idea with distaste, color me a dissident. In any case, being on the wrong side of history is sometimes a prerequisite for making the really big discoveries. I consider the multiverse concept to be needless and inelegant for the same reason that I feel that way about ID. Both concepts "dodge" outside of nature in order to satisfy their proponents' appetites for the answer. >The scientific evidence is actually pretty extraordinary but it can be gotten around if one is inventive enough to imagine an infinity of universes each of which is different from the rest < I have not seen that extraordinary evidence. I have seen much off-the-cuff talk about [im]probability. To me that, like the Drake equation beloved of xeno-anythingists, constitutes metaphysics.
