Look at it this way.

On most browsers, you can bring up your browsing history by pressing Control-H. (No, this is not going to become a discussion of werecows.) On Firefox, this brings up a sidebar that shows up on the left side of the window. If you put your mouse over the edge of the sidebar, the cursor will turn into a different kind of arrow. By clicking and dragging it, you can move the edge of the sidebar back and forth. You are, to put it another way, manipulating the border between the normal window and the history window. By moving the mouse, you can increase the portion of the window devoted to either part. In a more extreme view of this situation, you're increasing or decreasing the amount of existence the sidebar has.

Now, let's apply this idea to something more abstract. Look out your window. If you don't live in a highly urbanized area, you should be able to see the horizon. Think of this as the border between the land and the sky. The land and sky are obviously distinguishable thanks to this boundary. Now, if you were to "drag" the sash between the sky and the land, or to manipulate the border between land and sky, you would end up causing the sky to become larger and the land to become smaller, or vice versa. An effect of this might be to cause something that was just on the ground to suddenly be hundreds of feet in the air. Truly a frightening situation to be in. So, look at it this way - manipulating the border between two physical things shifts whatever balance there is in the interaction between those things. Alternatively, by manipulating the border between two things, you can change the manner in which they exist.

>> No.2694375

>>2694374
Still, this isn't *that* abstract, since it's still dealing with real things in the real world. Many believe that in this world, there are those things that are true, and those that obviously aren't. This divides reality into two extremes: truth and falsehood. But, since we have two extremes, logically one can imagine a boundary between those two extremes - the border between truth and lies. If one were to manipulate this border, suddenly things that were pure fantasy (flying pigs, for the sake of argument) have become reality - or things from reality have ceased to exist. This is how Yukari is said to have invaded the moon - by manipulating the border between truth and lies, as applied to the reflection of the moon on a pond, she was able to make the reflection of the moon into a manifestation of the actual moon, and so send her youkai army onto it. This is what's truly amazing about Yukari's power - the ability to manipulate the border between completely abstract concepts allows her to fundamentally change reality as we know it (at least in terms of two abstract concepts).

I'm aware it's wrong. I'm saying that his statement about every single possible event occuring somewhere in his theory of parallel universes is as ridiculous as the claim that there's a number larger than 3 between 1 and 2.

Even if there are an infinite number of universes, why are they necessarily all-encompassing? Is there ANY basis for this claim? And even then, if they are all encompassing, is a "universe" such as gensokyo even POSSIBLE?

>> No.2694431

>>2694412
Well yeah, that guy's statement was really stupid.
We got to remember that the set of all permutations of events and time is still bounded, that is, we got a finite constant that limits everything, that's the speed of light. So if a universe like Gensokyo is impossible.

Gensokyo is a land populated by things that people believe don't exist. It's not enough to simply not believe in something, but people have to actively disbelieve it. Hence youkai, fairies, witches, and other things people disbelieve in find their way to Gensokyo.

If you want to get to Gensokyo, then all you have to do is (1) become famous and (2) convince people that you never existed, were a myth or a legend. If you can manage to make people actively deny your existence then you, like oni, tengu, the moon landings, the holocaust, Springheel Jack and the Mad Gasser of Mattoon, will find yourself a new home in Gensokyo.
