Parallel Universes
The conclusions drawn most recently on actual creation of the universe are agreed upon by most of the authorities on the subject. The conclusion is there are parallel universes. The number of them is eleven but one physicist said the actual number could be infinitium. Parallel universes make sense the more you think about it. It could answer many questions about existance.

I like pondering the idea of parallel universes. I've never heard a limited number being theorized of, I'd love to know how they came up with 11, but I can spend hours thinking about infinite parallel universes...

What I think is really cool about it is the hypothisized idea of micro and macroism. The infinite posibilities go in both directions.

Yeah, like the idea that maybe our solar system is one atom in a greater structure, and atoms that comprise our world are actually tiny solar systems...

Scientists haven't postulated that there are 11 parallel universes, but that (according to string theory) there are 11 *dimensions*.

Most parallel universe theories assume a vast, vast number of parallel universes.

By definition, there can only be one Universe

Linguistic tautology.

Whatever names you use they are all a subset of one Universe by definition.

That includes words you just made up like "multiverse"

I did not make it up, it's been in SciFi for decades. I know it can be traced back to Robert Heinlein, perhaps farther...
