Yes, but a soul only has one version of itself. It doesn't recursively travel through EVERY option (path) available to it - that just doesn't make sense to me.

FFS. Tell that to physics.

Don't tell me just because Carroll believes it that you do too. Have you worked out the physics to confirm your theory?

I would believe him over you any day although 'belief' doesn't come into it. I just find him interesting. Have you worked out the equation for a 'soul' and provided empirical evidence, although I'm sure your 'soul' would be fine splitting into infinite versions of itself
There are many reputable physicists with valid theories. None of them KNOW which one is correct or claim to. So far string theory seems to be holding on with its 11 dimensions.

When I state "soul" I am not really speaking of some spooky thang in a religious context. I am merely using it to denote ones POV within reality, understand?

And what exactly does that mean?

You cannot be that stupid, surely. Think of where YOU are right now - that is your POV within reality, YES?

And that's your 'gotcha'? Go away self-confessed schizo loon. And what's with people assuming everyone else knows what their stupid acronyms mean? Is it just too tiring to actually type three words?

What gotcha?

I am so deeply sorry your royal highness of such great and wise intellect, I thought POV was well known as POINT OF VIEW. Why does everything always result in a slagging off match with any discussion that you are involved in? Perhaps because you are a slag?

Now, why don't you explain to us how the 'many worlds' hypothesis makes rational sense?

He's done the maths. It's now up to you to explain why it doesn't make sense. I don't recall ever saying that I think his theory is the right one. Could you be so kind as to post the link to where I said that?
