Multiple universes have been hypothesized in cosmology, physics, astronomy, religion, philosophy, transpersonal psychology, music, and all kinds of literature, particularly in science fiction, comic books and fantasy. From Wikipedia

Such is the desperation to avoid the reality of life around us.
That's an interesting point of view.
Just wondering, but could we also suppose that might be a driving force behind the interest and fascination in Science fiction?

I'm all for erzats possible worlds. Modal Logic is powerful; that's all there is to it. But I have never been able to embrace David Lewis's assertion that all possible worlds are concrete worlds. I know why he makes that claim; I just disagree. As far as physics goes and multiple worlds (universes), I just don't have the training or understanding to make a claim one way or the other. Still, I'm fascinated to hear from those who do.

The ridicule that Hugh Everett experienced, and others, is unfortunate. We have never learned anything new by holding onto old ideas with a death grip. Even our experience of faith changes, or it stagnates and dies on the idol of certainty.
