Middle Earth as a Parallel Universe - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I find the idea of parallel universes completely and entirely absurd, from everything I've seen of them. Makes me want to avoid phsyics. Bah.

And, personally, I don't believe that there's *that* much to the human mind. I don't think that thoughts could create an entire universe, no matter how detailed they are. It'd just be how everyone else said, where JRRT wrote this, or didn't, except going farther down to the molecular level.

I have a friend who believed in this, though. That there're literary universes, where any book that's been written is true. Eh. To each his own.
