Question

Hello Rabbi! In your book God Plays Dice you deal with the multiverse theory, which solves the problem of the low probability that a world like ours would come into being (with laws of nature suited to life, where even a slight deviation would have prevented the possibility of life). You reject the theory there in your own way. I didn’t understand why the theory helps solve the probability problem, because if in our world the odds of creating life are, say, one in a million, then how does it help that there are another million universes or a billion universes, each of which also has a one-in-a-million lottery? At the end of the day, from looking at the Big Bang theory it seems that if there had been even a slight deviation, we would not have arrived at a world with laws of nature like ours. So how does it help that there are parallel universes in which the same lottery was also held? Is the theory based on the idea that the Big Bang affected all those universes, and then it all becomes one single lottery?
Thank you very much for the book—it really does a lot of good.
