Big Brain Theory: Have Cosmologists Lost Theirs?

[gLing]

It could be the weirdest and most embarrassing prediction in the history of cosmology, if not science.

If true, it would mean that you yourself reading this article are more likely to be some momentary fluctuation in a field of matter and energy out in space than a person with a real past born through billions of years of evolution in an orderly star-spangled cosmos. Your memories and the world you think you see around you are illusions.

What does a nutter cult have to do with an article about weird cosmology theories?
