No, Stephen Hawking's last paper didn't prove the existence of a multiverse

If 'space', or 'the universe' is infinite, therefore the number of stars must be infinite, as must be the number of stars with planets, as must be the number of stars with planets and intelligent life.

Therefore there must be an infinite number of identical earths, as well as an infinite number of nearly identical earths, and an infinite number of earths where life is ruled by gas clouds who are the universes ultimate experts in Thinkology.

Infinity divided by any number is . . . infinity.

Infinity divided by infinity is also infinity.

Therefore I am typing this in an infinite number of universes.

Therefore as the number is infinite, I am typing this an all universes, and none of them. All at the same time. Further, the amount of time taken typing this is therefore both a zero point in space time, and every point in space time, in an infinite number of universes and in none of them.
