Re: non physical universes
People imagine ghosts, luck, fortune, love, beauty, perfectly straight lines, ...
People are great at imagining non physical critters.

Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

Re: the non physical
Huh?
Ghosts are physical? Luck, fortune, love, beauty, perfectly straight lines, ... are physical?

Re: the non physical
A perfectly straight line is imaginary.
Non physical things can be imagined.
It really is that simple.
What does any of that have to do with multiverses?

Re: non physical universes
I'm sorry but that is either just word salad or so trivially true as to be meaningless.

Re: non physical universes
You make that claim but provide no support. Yet I imagine things that do not exist period.

Re: non physical universes
I gave you a list.
An absolutely straight line, a line infinitely long sequence, love, ghosts, GOD, beauty, honor, multiverses, ...

Re: non physical universes
Nonsense.
I did not say love between a man or a woman, I said "love". "Love", the Platonic form.
Beauty, the Platonic form.
Honor, the Platonic form.
In addition I mentioned other things that cannot exist, the absolutely straight line, the infinite sequence ...

Re: non physical universes
Learn to read.
I did not say they were no thing, I said they are things I can imagine that do not exist.
Do you know about Platonic Forms?
Do you understand that a perfectly straight line is not simply a line?
Do you know what an infinite sequence is?
