I would like to see a specific example of some social behavior that requires that assumption of some phenomenon not being studied by mainstream science. I am particularly disturbed by the assumption that insects engage in some mysterious and unexplainable behavior.

Can you tell what specifically is unexplained by conventional science, say in the case of ants?

I don't see that there's anything necessarily mysterious or unexplainable about the natural behavior of insects. You just think that fields are "spooky."

Conventional biological science, as far as I know, has not paid much (if any) attention to developments in the physical sciences and information theory. The existence of universal fields is uncontroversial in physics. Fields account beautifully for non-locality: with individual insects, it appears we have a dispersion of units that are coordinated from a global source in real time on a constant basis. If the queen is "in trouble," the whole colony "knows about it" virtually simultaneously; yet all the individual ants may not be in direct communication with each other or with the queen. How do you explain that?
