Faith, Beer, and Other Things That Interest Geoff

The problem is that the many-universes hypothesis is used as a discussion-stopper - a way to avoid the fine-tuning of the universe.

Here’s what it reminds me of: A small child claiming that “the fairies” broke the vase or stole the cookies. I used to deal with that kind of thing as a childminder and later a young mother on a regular basis.

The real problem isn’t whether fairies exist or act - only a naif or a fool would try discussing that with the child - but whether “the fairies” are used to avoid addressing difficult sets of facts. So with many universes.
