In relation to many worlds hypothesis and multiverse theory. A referent is in relation to the potential of consciousness to transcend separateness inherent physically, in such modeling.
Implied is another point of view related to such a construct as a whole.
It is to present that each impression of separateness is alike to a facet in a Diamond.

I believe there is only one Universe.
Please expand on this... why do you believe that?
I suggest you take a look at Quantum Mechanics more closely...
Peace,

Well, philosophically (and etimologically) speaking, the poster is right: UNI-verse implies "all there is" - including all possible variants or "verses".
In other words, even with a myriad of "parallel universes", it would still be one UNI-verse.
But we could change its name to POLI-verse.

Yes, but it's not an appropriate name.
It's a redundant neologism, coined by people unfamiliar with the full meaning of the term "universe".
Purity - consistency - of thought is important, IMO, when dealing with such subjects.
Besides, this IS the "philosophy" forum. :-)

The problem is - potentially - that disregard for nuances (not just of meaning) and/or a tenuous grasp on logic could imply a lack of intellectual rigor that is not conducive to scientific discovery.

Yes, I understand the urge behind it (although it's not a new invention; the idea of "parallel worlds" has been around for many centuries - under different guises and names, of course).
All I am saying is that the NAME "multiverse" (or "poliverse") is unnecessary, because the term universe already contains the notion of all possible universes, even those that we might consider extraneous to ours.
And come to think of it.... it's all quite relevant to the idea.
But, like I said, I am not here to derail the thread, so let's leave it at that.

I believe there is only one Universe. I think human beings have lost their mind and have no idea how wrong they are in thinking there is more than one Universe. The Universe isn't a cell, it doesn't split and start multiplying itself. There's only one Universe.
But I do have a replica Earth theory. It makes a lot of sense, to me. If it isn't a theory, it's an awesome sci-fi fantasy waiting to be born and brought to life on the silver screen.
It's quick and easy to tell: the anagram of Earth is Heart. At the Heart of every galaxy is an Earth. Now imagine ONE Universe, filled with galaxies. And in each galaxy is an Earth. We die on one Earth but wake up on a replica.
I imagine other bright minds in the world have had a similar concept, if not the same exact concept. Oh, and...
the Universe is a dark place. When we get it all right, the Universe will become all Light. No darkness, No sleep and endless life...edit on 2.12.2014 by ik9zeroE because: (no reason given)
There’s something exciting afoot in the world of cosmology. Last month, Roger Penrose at the University of Oxford and Vahe Gurzadyan at Yerevan State University in Armenia announced that they had found patterns of concentric circles in the cosmic microwave background, the echo of the Big Bang.
This, they say, is exactly what you’d expect if the universe were eternally cyclical. By that, they mean that each cycle ends with a big bang that starts the next cycle. In this model, the universe is a kind of cosmic Russian doll, with all previous universes contained within the current one.
That’s an extraordinary discovery: evidence of something that occurred before the (conventional) Big Bang.
Today, another group says they’ve found something else in the echo of the Big Bang. These guys start with a different model of the universe called eternal inflation. In this way of thinking, the universe we see is merely a bubble in a much larger cosmos. This cosmos is filled with other bubbles, all of which are other universes where the laws of physics may be dramatically different from ours.

Perhaps you should take a better look at the subject.
They already sent the next satellite and the conclusion is confirmed.
This already having been discussed at ATS Science and Technology forum recently.

I am not talking about Quantum computation - or any of the lines of thought that led to it, for that matter.
What I am saying is precisely that to arrive at conclusions such as Quantum computation - or any other scientific advance - you need a razor-sharp sense of nuance. That's the edge that dissects and opens truly new avenues of thought. ("New" for every given culture; globally speaking, most ideas that prove to be valid have been around for centuries or millenia, and that includes Everett's "many worlds interpretation", albeit without the specific physics behind it.)
I believe there is a misunderstanding here - semantic or otherwise.
So, to avoid derailing the thread, once again: I am dropping the subject.

A completely absurd comment
I am simply expressing my opinion in an internet forum this is not the UN.
Pardon me but I am not as grandiose as you.
Any thoughts?
