Episode Synopsis "Infinite Histories "
Marie-Antoinette meets quantum mechanics in this mashup of ideas that spewed forth from my brain after once again re-reading the tale of that tragic queen. Though what if there also exists a world in which she had reasons to smile the rest of her days, instead of being driven to the scaffold? What if every decision she or any of the rest of us non-royals ever made actually created new worlds for each possible result to play out? I’m turning to the Many-Worlds Interpretation, shamanism, active dreaming, and “time” travel to explain why I think that could be very much possible, and what good it just might do us to indulge in such open-minded lines of historical-spiritual exploration.
