Of all the ridiculous theories about our past, this really takes the cake.
Is it any more ridiculous than the concept that all matter exists in an indefinite probablistic state and which only becomes deterministic when it interacts with the rest of reality, meaning (in a nutshell) that everything exists everywhere at the same time? Or that you are travelling through time at a different rate to me because you live on a hill? Some of the stuff we believe today is pretty damn ridiculous but that doesn't stop it from being true (probably). Face it, the whole of reality's just one big bundle of murky philosophy so lately I've just taken to enjoying the pretty colours, Man. Anyone for Pizza?
