Dear iidb: Guy babbling about Christ, evolution, and the big bang.

Hmm. I'd say, pick any eight biographies of Winston Churchill, and I suspect you won't find the authors at odds with each other on Winston's genealogy, year of birth, where he was taken after his birth, timing of major events in his career, date and time of his death, last words, and...details about his entombment...

And none of them can tell you what he said when praying in private - or even whether he ever indulged in private prayer at all.

There's no

Imagine when someone talked to you about quantum theory, let's say, the many worlds interpretation idea, that says: the different possible realities of a quantum object crystallise into different parallel universes at the point of measurement.

What's that saying? : Quantum theory is strange?

Yes. It is. And it's hypothetical; A conjecture. It fits the facts, but it's only one of several ways to explain those facts (all of them strange, but not yet demonstrated to be impossible).

And there's the theory where particles exist in multiple states simultaneously until measured,
Schrödinger's cat?

Indeed. It comes across as absurd. But it's consistent with experimental results, in a way that intuitive classical physics is not.

OTOH, your conjectures in this thread (such as ghosts and substance dualism) are inconsistent with experimental results, and so are simply false.

And quantum physics still says there are some things so improbable that they are not permitted to occur. It's not the case that all things are possible under quantum physics. Quantum physics isn't magic.

Lol, indeed. Perhaps not magic in this day and age.

We could instead use the term 'science fiction '.
