Why wouldn't the *whole* of such a Plenitude be truly superfluous to

So are sets of cardinality \aleph_2 or sets of cardinality
\aleph_{\aleph_0}.
On the other hand, one set of cardinality 2^\aleph_0 appears to be big
enough to explain all of observed reality.

Firstly a big thank you to Russell Standish for providing that
incredibly succinct 'bit stream' summary of universal-dovetailer
ontology. [Though only a vocational mathematician would seriously call
it 'very simple' even if it does have less than 1% of Bruno's word count

If you assume an ensemble theory, whether it be an infinite MWI or Bruno's
UD in the plenitude, is it POSSIBLE to avoid God? For the purposes of this

If the answer is yes the whole debate over God seems to
