Sometimes I feel as if I am a stupid frog in the presence of angelic, all-knowing birds.

LOLOL! Either you've read Max Tegmark's Level IV Universe model or you've read our book - because the frog/bird metaphor is built into the dialog.

But I dare say that your raising the points you have been raising is much closer to Einstein's position in the great Plato/Aristotle debate - Einstein argued like a frog but had the instinct of a bird. His dream was to transmute the base wood of matter to the pure marble of geometry. But he just could seem to let go of local realism.

Oops, "But he just could seem to let go of local realism." should be "But he just could not seem to let go of local realism."

If de Broglie is right and everything is a wave, then wave mechanics controls everything. Do you accept natural selection on any level?
