\"\"<\/a>The concept of multiple universes or infinite realities seems to have taken hold of our sci-fi\/fantasy worlds recently. One basic theory: Every decision you make creates a reality, but there also exists trillions upon billions of other realities based on the decisions you didn’t make. If you drink orange juice in the morning, your reality is based on that decision. Drink milk instead, and another you — an alternate you — will experience an alternate reality with different events.<\/p>\n

Walk that theory out past your brain meat and you get something that states: There exists an infinite number of realities in which an infinite number of possibilities occur. <\/p>\n

As such, there is a reality for everything — a reality in which you\u2019re reading this on a beach in Hawaii, another in which you\u2019re not reading this at all because you died in a fight with a dinosaur, another reality in which you can\u2019t understand these words because they are not written in Moon Language, your native tongue. There is a reality for every scenario. <\/p>\n

Cool stuff, right?<\/p>\n

But there\u2019s a huge problem with that thinking, something that has given me headaches and nosebleeds for months. <\/p>\n

Consider this: If there are are infinite number of realities, one of those realities must be a reality without any other realities. Therefore, we must be in that reality because there can only be that one reality, because we\u2019re already in it. <\/p>\n

Confused? SHUT UP! I\u2019m not an astro-doctor, so it\u2019s difficult to express my think sauce clearly.<\/p>\n

Let me try to repeat the idea again with different words. <\/p>\n

If there is a reality for every possibility, one of those possibilities must be a reality in which no other realities exist. And if that one reality exists, no other realities can exist…so that must be the one we\u2019re living in. <\/p>\n

Get it? <\/p>\n

It helps if you\u2019ve been drinking a lot of coffee, but trust me…my findings are sound. And I\u2019m not just saying that so you\u2019ll stop trying to find the Good Dan who is definitely not trapped in the Laser Farm root cellar. So don\u2019t even bother looking there. <\/p>\n
