Give me a reason why I should, and I'll consider it. I've never really read up on the whole parallel universe or multiple worlds theory or whatever it is.

What about perpendicular universes?

I am a proponent of multiverse theory.
It makes sense that every possible universe exists.

Our universe exists, giving the theory precedent.

That makes no sense. It's like saying that because Barack Obama exists, he must have an evil twin.

It makes perfect sense, but I'm not going to argue with anyone about this because it is pointless.

You aren't going to change your mind, so fuck you I'll believe what I want.

Oh, ok.

I am too tired to deal with anonymous trolls and have an intelligent discussion, which is impossible here anyway.

In another universe I'm sure we had a great conversation about the universe. But not in this one.

You aren't going to argue, because you can't. I'm pretty sure only physicists really understand it.

Unless you are operating from the philosophical viewpoint, in which case it'd worthless to most people as well.

I'm not sure; I haven't read too much on it.
However, if it's true, that's kinda cool.

With the many worlds theory, any possible course of action would happen in some universe. Which means that a near infinite number of universes are created every tP (Plank Time, the shortest amount of time). One universe is created where some upquark half the universe away went a little this way, and one universe is created where the same upquark went a little that way.

Most people see it as "A universe is created where I decide on noodles for dinner, and other where is decided on chicken for dinner", but really it would mean a number to large to comprehend for a number of universes that wouldn't be noticeably different from the one you were in. A universe where you could notice a difference would have an even more astronomically higher number of changes, even more astronomically harder to comprehend.
