One of the more unsettling discoveries in the past half century is that the universe is not locally real. “Real,” meaning that objects have definite properties independent of observation—an apple can be red even when no one is looking; “local” means objects can only be influenced by their surroundings, and any influence cannot travel faster than light. Investigation shows objects are not influenced solely by surroundings and may also lack definite properties prior2 measurement
...pairs of particles are sent off in different directions from a common source, targeted for two observers, Alice and Bob, each stationed at opposite ends of the solar system. Quantum mechanics dictates that it is impossible to know the spin, a quantum property of individual particles prior to measurement. When Alice measures one of her particles, she finds its spin to be either up or down. Her results are random, and yet, when she measures up, she instantly knows Bob’s corresponding particle must be down. .
...But under quantum mechanics, particles are not like socks, and only when measured do they settle on a spin of up or down. This is EPR’s key conundrum: If Alice’s particles lack a spin until measurement, how then when they whiz past Neptune do they know what Bob’s particles will do as they fly out of the solar system in the other direction? Each time Alice measures, she effectively quizzes her particle on what Bob will get if he flips a coin: up, or down? The odds of correctly predicting this even 200 times in a row are 1 in 1060—a number greater than all the atoms in the solar system. Yet despite the billions of kilometers that separate the particle pairs, quantum mechanics says Alice’s particles can keep correctly predicting, as though they were telepathically connected to Bob’s particles.

Yes but, if a man and a half can cut a cord of wood in a day and a half, how long would it take a monkey to pick the seeds out of a watermelon.....(?)
But will it get me a parking place in downtown Manhattan?
Really ❓
In other words:
Acts 17:27God intended that they would seek Him and perhaps reach out for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us. 28‘For in Him we live and move and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘ We are His offspring.’
It’s true, though...they’ve proven it time after time, measuring the spin rotation between two entangled particles faster than the speed of light.
It doesn’t have to be a conscious observer, though...it can just be a device that measures the polarity that forces the particle to spin one way or the other.
But the information is transmitted, somehow, faster than the spreed of light. They’ve proven it by flipping and measuring an entangled pair faster than the speed of light between two locations in the Canary islands.
The opposite spins were measured faster than the speed of light between the two islands. They flipped opposite each other faster than C, so somehow their info was transmitted to each half of the entangled particle instantaneously.
I believe such questions...such as the sound a tree makes as it falls...whether or not I’m there or no to observe the reality, are rooted in pride and hubris.
When we each and individually come to the conclusion that we are NOT NEEDED to be observers of a given object to establish the reality of it being, then we become closer to knowing God then we could, up to that point, have ever imagined. At that point there is a a pssibility that we can let go of a matter universe that we think we can cling to establish our own veracity, our own sense of solidity of person hood and instead we have the chance to allow God to establish his own reality in each of us thru Jesus Christ! It is not that the universe is “not real”, it is, but we become part of the reality of Jesus Christ who made all things, having been lifted out of that universe in spirit and into the Heart6 and reality that is God. I’m not talking about Buddhism or some sort of ancient heresy. Our flesh is still matter and it shall pass away as heaven and Earth shall pass away; but rather it is more that God dwells in us and we will know the fullness of what the reality is in the day of resurrection.
I believe God is truely omni present but we forget sometimes the chronological aspects of his omnipresence. Perhaps in the times when they were handing out labels to God like being Omniscient and Omnipresent...they should clarified his omnipresence to include the fact that he is Omnichronological...present in all places and permanently present across all time...past present and future. Such a “lifting out” or the “unpacking” of the time aspects in the descriptions of his omnipresence, give a broader dimensionality to Christ’s claims to be “Alpha and Omega, the fiirst and last” and to his mic drop moment when he declared, before eeasily angered clerics....”Before Abraham...I am!”
Neither does Chopra. It's just part of the technobabble he wraps around the ancient paganism he preaches.
Well, I don’t believe that Presidementia XiJinBiden operates in the ‘real’ world. He operates in his own world. The same can be said for True-dolt in Canaduh, and a number in the WEF. Unfortunately, too many of the above noted people, have too much control over the world.
That explains a lot. Also reminds me of the Yiddish joke: "When you have a lot of money, you're smart, you're good looking, and you even sing well."
The estimated Net Worth of Deepak Chopra is at least $145 Million dollars as of 7 September 2022. Mr. Chopra owns over 20,000 units of OSI Systems stock worth over $45,054,430 and over the last 19 years he sold OSIS stock worth over $90,380,760.
net worth in Indian rupees is Rs. 3330 crores.
But who's counting?
Well, maybe.
Quantum mechanics is useful for explaining certain puzzling phenomena. Or approaching an irrational explanation that could sometimes be true.
Nothing is Real...

For Carol to know about Ted’s-tickles they would need a little chemistry.

I really appreciated your post, MDMathis6.
I think of the angels that we can’t see that are, nonetheless, present and may make themselves visible to some at times.
God bless.
Her argument goes sorta like this: Imagine a man with his eyes closed randomly puts a red sock into one package and a blue sock in another. He doesn't know which package has which sock. He sends one package to Alice and one to Bob. Alice receives her package first. When she opens it and sees a red sock, she instantly knows that Bob will receive a blue sock.
The problem with this analogy is that electrons are not like socks. They don't have a particular state (e.g. up or down spin) even after being entangled.
A better analogy would be that a flickering lamp is placed into each package that is half on and half off, but not in some periodic and predictable fashion. Imagine the lights are set to stay on or stay off when they are removed from the package.
If spooky action at a distance was true for large objects, then when Alice opened her package and saw a light that was on, then when Bob opened his package, the light would be off.
But how could this be true if only the normal rules of physics applied? There is something else happening to "force" the one light to be off if the other is on.
So sayeth the Science God.
