Weeks later you get another letter saying your brother was part of a secret project where the government clones soldiers, the letter also informs you it was the clone who was killed and mistaken to be your actual brother, who will be returning home in a few days!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well, the alternate couldn't exist here, because his existance would end!. The only other alternate in the reality you are living is that he might die a different way!.

I don't believe death counts in this case!.

I think what this means is that you can choose to have a peanut butter and jelly sandwitch for lunch instead of cheese and you won't get sick!. If you have the cheese instead of the p&j, you will get sick!.!.!.

Now that I think about it, once you make a decision, that realtiy no longer exists!.!.!. So no, there are no alternates! LOLWww@QuestionHome@Com

I think the question could be rephrased!. Do all probabilities exist prior to expression into reality as a variety of possibilities!. Once expressed into 3d other possibilities do not exist at that moment in time!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Not exactly--it is possible for any particular possibility to exist!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If all possibilities can exist, then they do!. If not they don't!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
