I disagree.

  Well then feel free to expand because frankly the sentence I quoted cannot possibly in any way be interpreted to mean what you said; you're having a reading comprehension issue if you think your interpretation in any way matches what I quoted. What you said is an entirely different thing than what he said, they aren't even close.

    Xcelerate said 'by definition', and emphasised it. Which means that his/her argument rests on the definition of the term 'universe'. edit: Also Xcelerate has confirmed thats what they meant: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12083025 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12083025

      Which is not at all relevant to this quote > If there is another universe out there, it is by definition unreachable from our current universe As this quote by definition accepts the distinction of multiple universes as it makes zero sense otherwise. To take him at his word means he believes it's possible that there is another universe, but that it cannot be reachable from our own; no where does this statement imply he believes there's only one possible universe and it directly implies otherwise. His correction merely makes it clear he can't express himself clearly because what I just quoted above does not and can not make sense from the position of there being only one universe. I'll even say props to you for parsing that nonsense because what he said in no way matches what he claims to believe.

        > I'll even say props to you for parsing that nonsense Wow, harsh. Sorry to have aggrieved you so much.
