They say in an infinite multiverse versions of you exist. Yet there's an infinity of fractional numbers between 1 and 2 with no whole number 3 between, so infinity can exist without every possibility. (lemmy.world)

You can't buy the idea of it because you don't understand the theories around it?

That's an odd stance.

Would it not be better to respect and explore the idea instead of trying to dismis is through ignorance?

Why do you think that I'm being willfully ignorant and not trying to learn? (Maybe using the phrase 'cant buy' is too informal/misleading). Can we not learn through discussion of our beleifs/understandings/theories etc? I have stated why I don't think there are infinite coexisting universes, discuss or not as you please.

Also, disrespectful? What on earth are you talking about? How have I been disrespectful to anyone?
