For purposes of this thread, imagine that anything that has any probability of happening DOES happen in some alternate universe of the multiverse. Many Christians are willing to entertain the possibility of a multiverse, but what are the implications for Christian theology?
Here are a few thoughts to start:
- If Jesus CHOSE to be righteous in this universe then Jesus must have made the opposite choice in an alternate universe. Imagine Jesus bowing to Satan and becoming an enemy of the Father.
- If Christians CHOSE to believe then there is an alternate universe where they made the opposite choice.
- If God CHOSE this or that option then there are alternate universes where he chose differently.
- What is the person when alternate versions exist. Can we say God is righteous if he is only righteous in our universe and unrighteous in alternative universes? If God doesn't make a CHOICE to be righteous then is he truly righteous? And if God makes a choice then there must be alternate universes.
Just random thoughts. I am certain that people will have other thoughts (hopefully).
