Why the Multiverse is a "God-of-the-gaps" theory

"The Multiverse has been proposed as an answer to the question, “Why does our Universe exist?” Its proponents believe the Multiverse can explain our origins without having to reference God."

(If it wasn't for trying to 

"explain our origins without having to reference God."

It never would have become a thing.

CMB proved the universe had a beginning.

These guys just can not accept it.

Sux for them

As long as the universe was thought to be "eternal" 

with no begging and no end?

The  Steady State Theory of the universe.

Then no need for a Multiverse.

There's something "out there" that is eternal alright.

But it's not his creation.

It's him 

and his book has more truth than you're ever gonna find 

anywhere else

"But the Multiverse 

is in no way falsifiable, 

and the arguments in its support 

are nearly identical to the arguments for God. 

Not all questions need to be answered in order to be meaningful."

"In the late 17th century, the German philosopher Gottfried Leibniz said, “The first question that should rightly be asked is, ‘Why is there something rather than nothing?’” Leibniz was turning to this question to prove the existence of God. His line of reasoning went like this:

1. Everything that exists has an explanation of its existence.

2. If the Universe has an explanation of its existence, that explanation is God.

3. The Universe exists.

4. Therefore, the explanation of the Universe’s existence is God.

IT'S NOT COMPLICATED!)

"Sliding into cosmic inflation

"The very success of the science that emerged during the 17th and 18th centuries — Newtonian mechanics and gravity, optics, chemistry, and so on — created a distance between science and religion. The trend continued with force for 300 years, and now most people accept a clear separation between the two."

(Not much longer if I can do anything about it.

Through the power of the spirit etc...)

"Religion may inspire a number of scientists, but it is no longer part of the scientific discourse."

(The very founders of modern science: 

Newton

Kepler

Descartes

Galileo

and others

went looking for proof of God's exhistnace in nature 

and they found plenty, 

this is the basis of its origin from which modern science has turned its back on.)

"here are two main inspirations for the modern version of the Multiverse: Inflationary cosmology and superstring theory. In inflation, the Universe undergoes a super-fast, exponential expansion very early on in its infancy, fractions of a second after the Big Bang. The expansion is propelled at such speed by a hypothetical field called the inflaton — basically a fluid-like presence that permeates the whole of space and has the unique property of pushing space apart."

(Awesome.

Great.

How'd that get there exactly?

And remember it's 

"a hypothetical field"

with absolutely 0 proof of its exhistnace.)

"The Multiverse comes in when we add quantum physics to this picture. In quantum physics, everything is jittery. The inflaton is jittery, too. This means that while it is going downhill, quantum effects may kick it upward a bit in some regions of space, or down a bit in others. Since the amount of potential energy determines how fast the Universe expands, the inflaton will cause regions of space to expand faster or slower. The Universe splits into many Universes, each with its own expansion rate. This collection of Universes, or cosmoids, is the inflationary Multiverse. We live, supposedly, in one of these bubbles."

(Translation?

Anything but a creator.)

"In superstring theories, the Multiverse comes from the string landscape. Briefly, superstring theories require spaces with six extra dimensions. 

(While there is no proof?

This PART of this theory I lean toward.

The extra dimensions are what we lost access to in the Garden

(all but the dimension of God

That we can still access)

But not Satan 

Ezekiel 28:13

You were in Eden,

    the garden of God;

every precious stone adorned you:

    carnelian, chrysolite and emerald,

    topaz, onyx and jasper,

    lapis lazuli, turquoise and beryl.[a]

Your settings and mountings[b] were made of gold;

    on the day you were created they were prepared."

Fiery stones are the presence of God.

See Revelation 21 as well

"This means superstrings live in nine-dimensional spaces."

(God lives in his own dimension.

There's 11, not 10.)

'But we do not. At some point very early in the history of the Universe 

(ie EDEN)

(or maybe before, it is not clear), 

six of these nine dimensions 

balled up and remained very tiny, 

while the other three — the ones we live in — kept growing."

(Christ lived in them.

Man doesnt.

Man lost his access

This is how Christ was able to perform miracles.)

"My PhD thesis, in the mid-1980s, was about different scenarios that would keep these extra dimensions small so that we cannot see them."

"The theory predicts that the reason the Universe is the way it is — why the electron has the mass it does, why gravity or electromagnetism have the intensity they do — is due to the shape and topology of this extra six-dimensional space. We can picture the string landscape as the set of all possible shapes this extra space can have. Each generates a different three-dimensional Universe, with different physical properties. Ours, the theory states, would be the only one that has physical variables with the values we measure in the laboratory."

(This part I obviously don't agree with.)

"The superstring Multiverse, then, is the collection of all these Universes that pop up in the string landscape. And what does this have to do with God? Well, proponents of the theory argue that our Universe is fine-tuned for being the way it is and for having the properties it has. These properties include the existence of observers that can make theories about it. Some would argue this fine-tuning needs a fine-tuner, i.e., God. If you do not want a fine-tuning God, having a plethora of possible Universes reduces the problem to a kind of cosmic lottery game. Out of a huge number of Universes, ours is just one. We won the cosmic lottery, 

(Somebody please go calculate the odds of that for me.

It is so miniscule of a possibility 

they ca not even tell you how small the likelihood of it is. 

Tells you everything you need to know.

"You see, you tell me, sort of inadvertently."

"at least if you consider our existence to be a win — and we did not need a God to win it."

(So unlikely as to be more far retched 

than what they are trying to disprove.)

"Familiar philosophical framing

How reasonable is this argument? 

(It's not the least bit reasonable.)

First, from a physical perspective, we need to accept that superstring theory is a fundamental “theory of “everything,” including its predictions of supersymmetry — an extra symmetry of nature that predicts that each particle has a supersymmetric partner — and of six extra dimensions of space. 

So far, we have zero experimental evidence for either of these two properties. 

We have found no supersymmetry, 

and no extra dimensions. 

Proponents argue that maybe the supersymmetric particles are just too heavy to be seen by our current accelerators, while the extra dimensions are too tiny to be detected."

(See these scientist like to say:

"Well you just have to wait 

till we find physical evidence of the extra-dimensions

or a multiverse, then you'll see."

"Absence of evidence

is not evidence of absence."

they say.

But if you apply the same logic to Biblical issues?

Then they don't wanna apply the same logic.

"You see, you tell me, sort of inadvertently."

For centuries there was no evidence of the Hittites. 

The only thing mentioning their civilization was the Holy Scripture.

Then they found it.

Funny thing about hoaxes, 

time reveals them to be such.

So what was that discovery then?)

"Maybe, but then we cannot ever falsify this theory: 

Particles can always be too heavy 

and extra dimensions can always be too small 

for any machine that we ever build to detect."

(Maybe?

Maybe, that's the way the designer designed it lol.

They are inventing shit more fanciful

than what they set out to disprove at this point.

"You see, you tell me, sort of inadvertently."

1 Corinthians 3:19

For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God’s sight. 

As it is written: “He catches the wise in their craftiness”

"The same with the Multiverse. By construction, these extra Universes exist outside our own and thus are not directly detectable."

(Yo

scientist:

sci·ence

noun

1.

the systematic study of 

the structure and behavior 

of the physical 

and natural world 

through observation, 

experimentation, and the testing of theories against the evidence obtained.

ITS NOT EVEN SCIENCE!
IT'S THEIR FAITH!

Hebrews 11:1

Now faith is

the substance of things hoped for, 

the evidence of things not seen.)

"They may cause indirect signals, possibly from past collisions, 

but no such signal has been detected. 

On physical grounds 

there is not much support 

for the string landscape and its Multiverse." 

"And what about philosophically? The whole “if you don’t like God you’d better have the Multiverse” argument is very similar to Leibniz’s, just carried out backwards. 

(Same exact logic just inverted.

"You see, you tell me, sort of inadvertently.")

"This may be surprising for Multiverse enthusiasts to hear. But it should be clear that the Multiverse, in a curious inversion, is playing the exact same role as the God-of-the-Gaps. 

God’s existence is not provable by observations. 

The Multiverse is not provable by observations. 

God explains the Universe. 

The Multiverse explains the Universe. 

The Multiverse, then, is a lot like God. Weird, right?"

(I'll go one more:

Something we cant see or prove exist 

"out there" somewhere

entirely explains 

why we see what we see here.

I reiterate:

1 Corinthians 3:19

For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God’s sight. 

As it is written: “He catches the wise in their craftiness”

I reiterate:

There's more physical evidence 

of giants having walked this earth 

than there is of a multiverse existing.)

"The false assumption is that something that exists requires an explanation, whatever the cost of this explanation. In the case of the Universe, 

this is the problem of the First Cause, 

the uncaused cause 

that causes the Universe to become."

(The uncreated creator

brought his creation into exhistnace

and as such?

He is the SOLE

moral authority there of

and he shall judge every living being 

that ever existed.

YOU CAN TAKE THAT TO THE BANK!

Queue brother Brian:

IT"S NOT COMPLICATED!)

"This transition from being (God or an uncaused Multiverse) to becoming has been twisting our logical arguments into knots for at least 3,000 years, and probably longer. The question, then, is this: What is the price we must pay to have an “answer”? Is the price a supernatural cause, or an untestable scientific explanation? And in the end, does accepting either make a difference? Does it offer a way out? We should instead accept that not all questions need to be answered in order to be meaningful."

The difference between a supernatural cause 

and an untestable scientific 

(some would say, not me, see above)

theory and why it matters is this:

One has an ancient text supporting it,

Millions upon millions of changed lives that believed on it

and is being proved true right in front of your face.

(AI as the antichrist and 

to many others to shake a stick at)

and will save your eternal soul.

So yes, 

accepting one or the other 

makes a huge difference.

What's the unscientific theory got exactly?

I got three chairs at my table these days.

Come lay it on me.
