That makes three of us, which means there are likely many more.
Someone said this discussion (i.e. mulitple universes) is irrelevant and leads nowhere. However, it does have significant implications. What this means is that our universe is unique, but so are an infinite number of others (with different natural laws). The mere thought that there could be an infinite number of universes takes away some of the "specialness" (i.e. why is the universe this way? why do I exist? etc.) that for most people of the world leads to the conclusion that there must be a Creator and a Creation. The idea of infinite universes does not eliminate the possibility of a Creator and Creation, but it does offer other explanations for our existence.

It boggles the mind ....
The "laws" describe the behavior of reality, but unfortunately it seems reality refuses to be pigeon holed . Would it not be boring if mankind knew all the answers. What would we have to discuss?
