“The observer changes what is observed and becomes part of the event of observing.”
Yes, but even more troubling is the fact that, without an observer, the entire universe is nothing more than probability waves, and “reality”, as we know it, simply doesn’t exist.
So either the entire universe was just an intangible superposition until we showed up, or there must have been some independent, omniscient observer that existed before we did. I find it amusing that materialistic science, in ignoring the possibility of the supernatural, has led us to a point where there’s a good chance that their theories require a supernatural deity to function.

"So what?" You're an idiot.
Not providing support for your argument. What does that make you?
