Besides Goethe, Newton had another German antagonist, Leibnitz. He disagreed with Newton, believing that there is no fundamental stuff of all existence; existence is much bigger than that. And much if it is not made of matter.
An important mainstream philosopher who took the idea of many worlds very seriously and probably believed it was David Lewis who wrote On the Plurality of Worlds (1986):
"As the realm of sets is for mathematicians, so logical space is a paradise for philosophers. We have only to believe in the vast realm of possibility. And there we find what we need to advance our endeavors… The physical pattern that is relevant to a given person's mental life might extend indefinitely far outside that person and into his surroundings."
I've come across the elites every time I've written about the brilliant Ayn Rand. So-called philosophy graduates, ex university graduates, and democrats. I ask you all to read The Foutainhead, and not see the destruction of the entrepreneur. Read Atlas Shrugged, and not see the destructiion of the Republic. Anthem describes the Free world of the future. The pod; owning nothing and being happy, 15 minute zones and no names.

Thanks for this comment with Lewis. In regards to Lewis: I have not read him. I will enjoy reading him. https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/david-lewis/
