Are you implying that believing in religion does not inspire imagination?
- kazinator 12y agoI'm not merely implying it, but saying it outright: but with the qualification that it is true in "people who have a certain mindset". People who have a different mindset from that one find religion inspiring. It's nice for others to have something that is more in line with how they think.
- s_baby 12y agoThe idea of a multiverse is a derivative idea from Western religion/philosophy. It's a modern variation of the principle of plenitude. "The principle of plenitude asserts that the universe contains all possible forms of existence."[1] It's not a peripheral idea either but a cornerstone of pre-modern western ontologies. 1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principle_of_plenitude http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principle_of_plenitude
