Abstract: Singularities associated with an incomplete space-time (S) are not well-defined until a boundary is attached to it. Moreover, each boundary (B) gives rise to a different singularity structure for S ⊃ B, the resulting “total” space-time (TST). Since S is compatible with a variety of boundaries, it therefore does not represent a unique universe, but instead corresponds to a family of universes, one for each possible boundary.
