Lam, you've just about encapsulated most all of my preferred understanding of the world. Gj, I'd rep you but I can't again.

Not necessarily true. There is no implication that any universe is ''perfect with its path,'' a multi-verse exists because of different choices made by different individuals at different times, not any single one being more or less ''perfect'' than any other; perfect itself being a human value-judgement that has no implication on what actually is.


The example from Islam that lam had in his post is a good example of what I'm (inadequately) trying to say.
