Don't believe me? Just ask one of your 'yous'!

Picture
Asking someone to explain how there might be an infinite number of all of us "out there" somewhere, existing in an infinite number of universes parallel to the one we live in, is a big ask.

I'll take a stab at it.

You begin life as the only 'you'. Initially, others make choices for you, but the older you get the more you make (or don't make, not choosing is a choice) yourself.

Who makes the choice does not matter. What does matter is that each choice creates a large to infinite number of possible outcomes now followed by an equally large to infinite number of 'yous'.

The multiverse theory assumes the universe splits when a decision is reached, an action is taken. Decide to go here not there on vacation, SHAZAM: a new you in a new universe each of you becoming something different from that point onward based on your different choices. All your 'yous' continue down paths different from each other and the one you, the original 'you', is on.

Still with me?

Your new 'yous' are not identical copies of the original you. Soon, the vast majority will be so different as to be unrecognizable having ever been you. Different choices will lead to exponentially different outcomes no matter how small the choice option differences appear to be. 

Kind of like identical twins at birth who grow up looking nothing like the other.

After the divorce, one raised by dad, the other by mom, each parent practising a completely different approach to raising their twin.

I know this is true, one of my 'yous' told me it is. 😐️
