"Measuring particles necessitates interacting with them, so measurement does "split the universe," but most of the "universe splits" are unrelated to measurement (and certainly unrelated to consciousness). This hardly implies any intelligent design -"

I wasn't saying that at all. I was simply wondering luckyme would be so sceptical of an intelligent design theory but not of an equally crazy sounding many worlds theory.

Ah. I see. Well, I think they're similar. Both have no real evidence going for them, and both introduce unnecessary complexities. But I guess some math is starting to be consistent with the MWI, so it's getting more popular.
