  1. Even not deciding is a decision. In every moment we are deciding to NOT do everything possible. There are trillions of atoms in a fingernail. Think of all of the possibilites in simply deciding to move a finger, all of the quadrillions of quadrillions of positions in space you could move one finger. Are they really saying there are worlds where I, for no logical reason, would just decide to get up and walk around the room? To spontaneously start singing the Star Spangled Banner? To scratch my knee if it isn't even itching? One where I scratch the spot right above that? Every point on my knee? Scratch my knee while singing the Star Spangled Banner..? This thoery is wrong.

  2. Exactly. Anything within the laws of nature anyway. Sounds like simply the fact that possibilities exist. That's it. There aren't parallel universes. There would have to be an infinite number of worlds, most of which wouldn't make any sense. Worlds where people and animals choose to do things that don't make sense. Nature is efficient. It would be the ultimate inefficiency.
