Interesting article…I can’t say that I believe in all the theories like string theory, bubble theory, multi-universes, etc. Even Quantum mechanics seems to me like a statistician’s folly. Einstein’s Special and General Relativity theories are the only two theories that can still hold up over time and experimentation. No one has come close to providing the elusive Grand Unified theory. As far as the possibility of life elsewhere, God only knows. And since our very limited ability to get outside of our own planet’s space…the whole universe could simply be a colorful curtain drawn across the kingdom of Heaven.
