Hi Stephen P. King 

But being a Christian, a Platonist, or yogacara, there IS only one entity.

IMHO more than one universe per entity is unjustified.

Hi Roger, 


I find it harder to believe in finite universes. Why the precise number, 
whatever it is?

It's easier to believe in salvation through faith or UFOs than infinite 
universes.

Hi,

? I think this paper might be fodder for a nice discussion!

About the Infinite Repetition of Histories in Space
Francisco Jos Soler Gil, Manuel Alfonseca
(Submitted on 22 Jan 2013 (v1), last revised 23 Jan 2013 (this version, v2))
This paper analyzes two different proposals, one by Ellis and Brundrit, based 
on classical relativistic cosmology, the other by Garriga and Vilenkin, based 
on the DH interpretation of quantum mechanics, both of which conclude that, in 
an infinite universe, planets and living beings must be repeated an infinite 
number of times. We point to some possible shortcomings in the arguments of 
these authors. We conclude that the idea of an infinite repetition of histories 
in space cannot be considered strictly speaking a consequence of current 
physics and cosmology. Such ideas should be seen rather as examples of 
{\guillemotleft}ironic science{\guillemotright} in the terminology of John 
Horgan.
