There is a fanscinating concept contained within the notion of 'the collapse of the wave function': For the many to collapse into the one, in what realm of the universe does the 'communication' occur which allows for the many to coalesce into one? The spacetime for this communication is by definition outside our sensing and we merely receive the results and can calculate the occurrence statistically. einstein touched on this notion with his questioning of action at a distance relating to quantum theory.

einstein = Einstein ... such a gross error. I'm ashamed to have made it.

Quantum theory may apply to sub-atomic particles, but it does not apply to morality, or truth. Some things are constant (gravity, speed of light, hubble constant, laws of motion, law of non-contradiction, etc.) and without acknowledging this, we cannot live effective lives. Antithesis (not syncretism) is the basis for a true unifying theory: A leaf is green, not red; if I jump off a buidling I will fall to earth; I exist as opposed to not existing. Life is chock full of either/or propositions, and without antithesis, Newton would not have been able to come up with any of his breakthrough theories.

Is it not true that phsycists now believe there are at least 10 dimensions in our universe. At least 6 of these are inferred. God exists outside of the dimensions we can see. Is. 57:15: "I am He who inhabits eternity." Eternity is a place, not time going on forever - a dimension outside of the dimension of time that we cannot see or directly detect, and that is where God dwells. That is how the God of the bible can see the beginning from the end.
