These three references here raise a question for me in regard to quantum
physics...how popular and accepted is this "Many Worlds" concept? It appears
to have been around for at least 50 years.
1. Wiki on Many-worlds <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Many_worlds>
interpretation "The many-worlds interpretation or MWI (also known as the
relative state formulation, theory of the universal wavefunction, parallel
universes, many-universes interpretation or just many worlds), is an
interpretation of quantum mechanics.".
2. Parallel universe proof boosts time travel hopes

"Parallel universes really do exist, according to a mathematical discovery
by Oxford scientists that sweeps away one of the key objections to the mind
boggling and controversial idea..." Read

3. Also - a book by Frank Tipler - "The Physics of Christianity" - which I
confess I can't understand all of - but he professes to be both a Christian
and to believe in multiple universes.
