I am baffled as to why this happens and almost invariably it is impossible to direct these posters to a better understanding.
Because people can achieve fame and money by making their careers out of unprovable nonsense.
Parallel worlds are nothing new
now careers are made trying to scientifically espouse them.
I personally am trying to prove the existence of the flying spaghetti monster, being the pastafarian I am.
.QuoteI personally am trying to prove the existence of the flying spaghetti monster, being the pastafarian I am.Just like last-Tuesdayism, the point is the attempt to falsify the view, not to prove it. If you don't get that, you probably don't get the FSM.
how to even start proving multiple realities are false,
It is not difficult to build what appears to be a perpetual motion machine and sell to ignorant speculators it has been done many times
superunit
The perpetual motion machine is known to be impossible because of the thermodynamic principle (it is only a principle but very strong established).
The "crank" that first created the windmill …
The "crank" that first created the windmill dident really know how the air flow could be used to extract "free" energy.
I think by "superunit" friend Deecart means "over unity" - a machine with efficiency greater than 1.It only exists in the minds of politicians and economists. For example:1. Privatise the supply of water, gas and electricity. This obviously increases efficiency and relieves the taxpayer of a burden.2. Allow the market to collapse so there is no real competition3. When prices rise to the point of unaffordability, give taxpayers' money to the consumers so they can give it to the shareholders of the private companies.This guarantees the gratitude of both customer and supplier, hence keeps the current administration in power and everyone is happier, at no cost. The alternative is common sense socialism, which is bad.
NoIt is mathematically proven.

No, it is principle. You can cry or shout louder, it remain... a principle.Sorry to talk science.
a fundamental, primary, or general law or truth from which others are derived
You're both technically correct: https://www.dictionary.com/browse/principle
You use some simple dictionary as a proof ?!!Shame on you.
Words have definitions. If you're not using a word in accordance with its definition, then you are using it improperly.
The Principle of ScienceThe principle of science, the definition, almost, is the following: the test of all knowledge is experiment.Experiment is thesole judge of scientific "truth". But what is the source of knowledge? Where do the laws that are to be tested come from? Experiment, itself, helps to produce these laws, in the sense that it gives us hints.But also needed is imagination to create from these hints the great generalizations—to guess at the wonderful, simple, but very strange patterns beneath them all, and then to experiment to check again whether we have made the right guess.From Feynman Lectures on Physics

"Principal" can have more than one definition. The one I provided also works in science.
