I do not mean to ridicule it at all. I have some real interest in it. I understand quantum mechanics is based on real, solid observable science. It is truly amazing to me. I do not quite know what to think of it. But it is apparent the universe at a quantum level is a very bizarre place.

When I first heard about quantum mechanics in a college physics class I couldn't believe it. I had to check it out further. I have continued to do so over the years.

The data leading to the theory of quantum mechanics is so strong and the implications are so huge you would think this would be all that today's philosophers and theologians would be talking about. The fact that they don't is very disappointing to me.

The fact that physicists are willing to consider truly bizarre theories to explain the data is very encouraging to me. I am all for the quest for truth.

Sorry if my comments sounded like I was mocking. I guess I mostly find is humorous that man is faced to ponder these bizarre conclusions.

Sorry, didn’t mean to imply I thought YOU were ridiculing QM.

My comment was just that the theories, on their face, are indeed ridiculous.

But I guess there is no reason why the universe God created must line up with what seems logical to our feeble minds.
