I have question concerning Tipler's beliefs. I've heard people on this list say he uses his Omega Point theory to justify his religious beliefs, but from what I understand his theory states that there will be infinite computation and all beings that have ever existed or could have existed will be resurrected. Does he use this as justification for religious beliefs? Personally I can't see any link between the potential existence of a God-like entity and worship. Or does the Omega Point have a huge ego that must be satisfied by long-dead entities going to church?
