I've been studying up on the latest theories of the Cosmos and how it might exist and I've been pondering the possible meanings for a semi-traditional Judeo Christian view of the things.

Namely:

If one theory is correct, there are an infinite number of Realities out there where every choice was made.

To take one example: If you were deciding to whether or not to get up this morning and you did, there now exists a separate reality in which you didn't.

The non-religious implications of this theory alone are staggering: an infinitely branching tree of realities.

NOW.

Through Heaven and God into the mix.

What then happens when I die?

First, there are an infinite number of me in these realities; some have died ealier, some have died sooner.

Also, some have lived a good life, and some are probably very bad.

What happens to this "super-being", this infinite Lebell?

Are some branches "pruned off", i.e. the evil ones, which fall into the darkness of Hell, while the good ones go to heaven?

Are we merged into one being or treated seperately?

Anyway, these are some of the things I come up with

It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." – C.
