    Since it’s completely theoretical at this point, anyone can say anything.

    To put it another way, last century there were all kinds of books about life on Mars. Today we can talk about ‘the multiverse’ or ‘different dimensions’ the same way.

    The generally accepted concept is that there are an infinite number of universes, and that every time someone makes a decision a new ‘timeline’ emerges. In one world you ate strawberry ice cream, in the next chocolate, in the next you skipped dessert…

    It’s a fun idea for science fiction authors and theoretical physicists, but no one has proven it’s real.
