During an interview I once had to write an essay about the aims of education and whether it allows us to pursue 'the truth'. It included the following passage:
In physics, the more we probe the nature of matter, the more it appears that mind and matter are one, in the sense that the entities we are forced to invent and describe are more mathematical abstraction than physical reality. Complemented by empirical methodologies as it is, theoretical quantum physics is subject to the limitations of the scientific method and in my opinion the search for the chimerical Theory of Everything is thus doomed to failure.
I would appreciate any feedback on my 'naive' ideas about physics.
