The universe defines what constitutes a moment in the same way it defines what constitutes the third-dimension (depth); or anything. A two-dimensional (flat) reality exists as part of a three-dimensional reality in the same way a three-dimensional reality exists as part of a four-dimensional reality. In a 2-D world, causality (and, thus, time) takes a linear course. In a 3-D world, it is both lateral and linear at the same time (constituting a “flat†notion of depth). Einstein’s idea “curved space-time†thus posits gravity as unique to three-dimensional reality and implies empty (“flatâ€, 2-D reality) space at the same time.Agreed, the theory doesn't violate the laws of logic, although it comes very close. For example, how does the universe define what constitutes a "moment",...
The problem with the “many worlds†theory is nothing more than the implicit idea of an inherently existing self existing simultaneously within different worlds -- whatever truth that’s supposed to impart.
It has nothing to do with science, as far as I’m concerned. Just another theoretical fancy.
