Salyavin, The Srimad Bhagavatam tells of the Prajapatis, the cosmic executives, who fathered human beings throughout the universe. And, an ancient rishi by the name of Narada was able to fly or teleport himself to other regions of the universe to propagate his gospel of Vishnu. Apparently, he had been cursed by someone here on earth to be continually traveling because he would lead groups of young men and would take them away from their families to become brahmacharis. Is that it? Some Indian guy says it and you believe it? Dude, you've gotta be more discriminating with your reading. You've got to be able to tell myths and stories from reasonable, verified and even likely ideas, or at least theories with some sort of practical possibility. Also, the concept of a holographic universe is currently being developed by Leonard Susskind from Stanford University. Here's a video clip: He may well be but that doesn't mean that we are projected to different parts of the universe, it's about the universe itself being a kind of extension from elsewhere, it doesn't change the facts of evolution. And it sounds like an unnecessary add=on to me. What hitherto unsolved parts of cosmology does it flesh out? Or is it yet another theoretical "aint quantum shit weird" thing? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DIl3Hfh9tY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DIl3Hfh9tY Further, IMO the idea of evolution may not be a product of random events. There may be a mechanism in the DNA of one celled organisms which trigger it to evolve into higher forms of organisms. Similarly, there might have been such episode in the animal line of DNA which got triggered to evolve into the homo sapiens today. Probably is, but if it's a mechanism to increase complexity what makes anyone think it didn't evolve itself? Anything that confers an advantage, and more complexity is one, would be selected for very early on and wipe out the ones that didn't have it.
