Yet the situations are diverse.

-Soren- Well, when it comes to feelings and whatnot. I don't think Rhythm's being held on ransom.

But I will find Rhythm. There's no doubt.

The bond between siblings is one of the strongest of all.
-Soren- Hey, I forgot for a moment that you would know that just as well. *chuckles* So that's three of us with the same kind of experience. Nice coincidence. We can help each other.

That is flawed.

Okay, Vegeta. I'm here with my 1.6 thousand on this account.

Exactly, and we're trying to explain that to him, but he doesn't seem to understand. We hope my latest post explains it clearly, though.

"It is not that possible worlds are real or fake, they are simply possible."
The argument falls apart right here. The idea that something is possible does not immediately imply it to be true. If God as a maximally great being is possible in a hypothetical thought experiment, that doesn't mean anything. It just means that he's possible in a hypothetical thought experiment.

And so let me explain my final thought process further: If God, because he is maximally great and exists in a possible universe, is therefore necessary and must exist in all possible universes, including ours, I can simply come up with another possible universe where there exists a god that transcends the very idea of maximally great, and also hates everything and wants to destroy it all. Well, now he exists in a possible world, and since he's greater than maximally great, he must be necessary and thus must exist in all possible worlds, and so he would have destroyed our world as well.

But I can go one step further and entirely invalidate the premise, by saying that our world is not a possible world. It is the real world. So even if God existed in all possible worlds (which, by the way, He doesn't, because I just imagined a possible world where God does not exist), that doesn't mean he would exist in ours.

The fallacy you exhibit is trying to take philosophy that occurs within the mind and make it affect reality. No amount of thought will ever do anything unless you do something with it.

You just have a million accounts. If you combined them all you would probably have over 9000 times 2 or something.

Also, my posts are OVER 9000!
i'm so sorry

The fact that she's been gone is terrifying.

@Host

-Soren- I feel for you. When the Order took away my sister, we had no idea where she was for a time, and I was so frightened.

That's actually an intelligent argument against the multiverse theory. I've heard it before.

@Host

Against the multiverse theory, yes--but the person was trying to use it to prove God to a group of people that did not believe in the multiverse theory, one reason for which was the hole presented by that very argument. But one of the big things that was revealed to be wrong with it was that the person was speaking about a thought experiment, where you imagine that something may be true. He said that if God is possible, he must exist in a thought experiment (but he refers to it as a possible world, which muddles the true meaning), and so he must exist in all possible worlds, and so he must exist in our world. This is very clearly flawed.

Myriad Reality

Someone tried to prove God exists with the worst argument ever.

"(1)It is possible that god exists
(2)If it is possible that god exists, god must exist in a possible world
(3)If god exists in a possible, god exists in all possible world
(4)If god exists in all possible worlds, it must exist in our world
Therefore god exists."

Needless to say, I took that down, surprisingly alongside an athiest.

bed, ned

-Soren- Hey, it's no problem. Ruby told me how long you've been looking for her a while ago. I'm glad to help.
