If the world *split* (or differentiate) it is self obvious, that before the split/differntiation, it's the same world.
So if you start at moment t1 with one "world" A... at t2, you have two "worlds" A1 and A2 *each* having A as common past "world" Le mer. 20 janv. 2021 à 08:29, Alan Grayson <[email protected]> a écrit : > On Tuesday, January 19, 2021 at 10:08:21 PM UTC-7 Pierz wrote: > >> On Wed, 20 Jan 2021 at 4:01 pm, Alan Grayson <[email protected]> wrote: >> >>> On Tuesday, January 19, 2021 at 11:46:35 AM UTC-7 [email protected] >>> wrote: >>> >>>> On Tue, Jan 19, 2021 at 12:54 PM Alan Grayson <[email protected]> >>>> wrote: >>>> >>>> *> So contrary to some who think I know zilch about the MWI, I DO know >>>>> what world I am in !
