We reappear, memories intact, in some other universe, like a boltzman brain.

Many worlds theory.

What am I missing here. Isn't this correct if there are supervast number of universes?

no, what it means is that you never die, but you are probably horribly maimed and in a great deal of pain. your consciousness goes to a universe where you are badly maimed but not actually killed so as to minimize the extent the violation of the classical laws of physics consistent with your consciousness continuing to exist. you continue to exist forever in a state of not being dead but probably being almost-dead unless you are given truly heroic medical attention, with your death always being prevented by unlikely-but-not-impossible quantum events

You said it perfectly in yr first poast in this thread though.

This has some deeper significance too... Like the defects in our world exist as they must to provide a better world that exists from a better position in branching.

this is actually consistent with classic western gnosticism, which basically says that as long as you are subject to the laws of the universe created by the demiurge, you will be trapped in a mirror-hall of horrors. the only way out is to pierce through the veils of "reality" back into the Pleroma.

So some temple.moochers contemplated physics way back when. Doesn't mean religion is afforded some higher status because one or two avenues of thought therein are shown to be correct.

I liked the story. Not exactly what I was thinking about. Just sort of musing over the idea that there are BETTER places than earth for us. And they exist because our own world exists w all its flaws.

Less profound but more meaningful in a way.

Why would we *reappear*? If I could/would have a Boltzmann brain, then it has already been has formed, for all practical purposes. If we're talking about another universe, then there's no objective sense in which something happening there happens before or after any event here, right?

Sorry, bro. There's nothing connecting the other versions of you implied by the things in your op to yourself.

I may be entirely indistinguishable from infinite copies of me, but I am still a distinct entity from them all. When I die, my subjective experience ends, and I see no reason in QM or elsewhere to believe that I (as in, my continuous subjective experience) would somehow transfer over to another copy/boltzmann brain. Those copies are physically elsewhere and have their own experience (even if that experience might be entirely identical to mine.)

Like if you made two identical conscious androids and they somehow lived the exact same life, and then crushed one, why would its consciousness transfer?
