In the case of the Paul the Octopus http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_the_Octopus the results were astonishing which eliminates the ''infinite'' crap. everything that ever will be, has already been is nonsense. Don't believe it. It's BS. There i only one outcome.
The way see the world now is that the past, present cause the future in to being but some have suggested that the future causes the past and present to come into being.
This following text is from an old book
On the physical plane, we have analogies illustrating this fact. It is
said that in every acorn rests and exists, in miniature, the form of the
future oak. And, some go so far as to say that the oak is the "ultimate
cause" of the acorn--that the idea of the oak caused the acorn to be at
all. In the same way, the "idea" of the man must be in the infant boy,
from the moment of birth, and even from the moment of conception.
