Hi Alan,
I saw that show and found it quite
interesting. The idea of 11 dimensions is pretty mind boggling in itself,
but the possibility of the Big Bang occurring due to 2 members of one of
these dimensions colliding into each other is very heavy indeed. When
you think about it though, provided you can accept 11 dimensions, it makes a
plausible hypothesis. Since there has been no other real scientific theory
for the "reason" the Big Bang occurred, maybe this is the first step in
understanding the existence of the universe we live in. I find it easier
to accept the fact that time existed past, and thus before the singularity, than
just saying time started with the Big Bang. It would make more sense that
time has always existed. Now you have the basis for the "parallel
universes" theory. If you can accept all of this, then the possibility of
parallel universes would also make sense. If we can't accept this, we are
back at square 1 trying to explain why our "Big Bang" was the only Big
Bang. Maybe one day we'll know for sure...only Time will tell!
