Multiverse Science

The multiverse, conceived as an unbounded configuration space of all possible system states, is not problematic for science because of its scale, entropy, or recursive self-generation—it’s problematic because science, as currently structured, lacks the tools to capture or model such structures. The hyperinflation of interior spaces—spaces within spaces, possibility within possibility—highlights the same ancient wound between potential and actual infinity: the former as generative substrate, the latter as observational boundary. Within this framework, most universes would contain no observers, no structure we would call “life”—but that’s a trick of the language. Define life in terms of mathematics and information, and suddenly, within any infinite set of configurations, there will be an uncountable number of algorithmically coherent sub-patterns: systems of recursion, reflection, adaptation—intelligences. Not rare, but inevitable. And if we’re prepared to accept the plausibility of infinite self-structuring complexity, then the idea of divinity—as intelligence emergent beyond us, indifferent to us, or structurally anterior to our own coherence—shifts from theological speculation to a statistical certainty.
