The following is all speculation. In my opinion though, so is everything else, so blow me.
If infinity is real, then it goes without saying that there are infinite possibilities. Therefore, if you can think of something, it is just as valid as anything else. It is impossible for you to think of something that is not covered by infinity. Because of this, how can any one’s belief truly be wrong? To Scorpion, the idea that one can possess a belief proves that the belief is real, no matter how off the wall it may seem, because it is covered by infinity. One issue that arises in thinking this way is that it allows for the possibility of multiple contradictory beliefs to all be correct. I don’t believe that this is actually an issue.
I believe that there are infinite parallel dimensions. Some say that a new parallel dimension is created whenever one makes a choice. If one decides something, then another one decides the other thing. At this point, both ones split paths, and continue merrily along in separate dimensions. As you can imagine, this would create a LOT of splits, all originating from a single point, which I imagine would be birth. Were we able to plot out every possible outcome, it would probably look something like a ridiculously complex family tree.
I actually have a slightly different take on parallel dimensions; I prefer to think that there are infinite streams of possibility, already flowing through everything. Whenever one makes a choice, his or her soul/consciousness simply jumps out of one stream and into another.
But basically, there are infinite versions of your soul perpetually occupying infinite streams of possibility, one soul per stream, blipping back and forth constantly and forever. This would also explain why one is able to steer their own course through life (free will).
It is because of this that I believe two disparate ideas can coexist simultaneously, meaning I think that two people who argue different sides of something can BOTH be right, because the harder they believe in something, the more real it is to them, and therefore that is where their soul is going to end up, streamwise.
On a tangent, I think dreams are some sort of reset mechanism, where we sometimes go back to where we’ve been before, rapidly changing streams… losing the grip we’ve evolved to have on reality. A refreshing change-up from the drear of ordinary life. Maybe the souls who occupy our dreamscapes live our lives when they sleep.
All that being said, it’s important to remember bears.
