An article in Discover magazine (hat tip: Sullivan) reports on physicists thinking big thoughts.  Really big thoughts.  Like this:

Wow.  Multiverse.  I think Chuang Tzu would say: sure, why not?  The very word "universe" asserts an essential unity, a logical unity, that simply may not exist.  As human creations, the word and concept of universe, to a Taoist, necessarily fall short of capturing the vastness and complexity of Way.  Our words and ideas always fall short.  If there is a unity in Way, it is a unity of coincidence, not of structure or process.  From that point of view, a multiverse is possible; it might even be a closer approximation to the scale and variety of Way.

If we have trouble giving up the idea of "universe," the trouble is merely in our minds, not in Way.  And we might, then, give up the silly pursuit of a "theory of everything."
