One universe or many? Panel holds unusual debate

World Science reports that at the American Museum of Natural History in New York, five top physicists and astronomers were brought together to debate whether universes beyond our own exist. Those attending then watched as the experts clashed over a question that is nearly unanswerable.

This debate stems from the obvious fine-tunedness of the cosmos and irredicible complexity of life itself. The argument goes, given enough universes, this one was inevitable. This is the materialist's "loophole" to try to keep itself from crumbling, and to keep "the divine foot from entering the door".
