Do physicists realize how unconvincing physics appears with so many contradictory interpretations, especially given that these views come from Nobel laureates rather than some charlatans?

I don't like explanation that speed of light is not broken because we can't send information faster then light, that sound as cheap diplomatic excuse to save Einstein. Entangled particles somehow "communicate" or how to explain their instantaneous interaction?

Is it true that Bell didn't prove that hidden variables can't exist, as Tim told?

Quantum mechanics is branch of physics, not theory.

@Matterwave If all of these theories — whether standard Copenhagen, Bohmian pilot-wave, or 't Hooft's cellular automata — yield identical mathematical predictions for any experiment we can conduct today, who decide which theory we will learn our students at universities, which theory will...

That is your example that nature is random? Weather is not probabilistic, it is deterministic chaos (NS equations). Real fluids are not continuum and we don't know all initial conditions.

We don't have theory for path of single electron, we don't know what he do, so we say electron movement is random.

But electron around nucleus don't follow any law, any pattern, nothing cause it that he behave like it is.. that is what randomness say.

Yes I read your posts. Do you think nature at all scales must be only random or only deterministic or it can be random in micro-world and deterministic in macro-world? If latter, where is border where random become deterministic? I don't understand concept of randomness( absence of...

Yes, by Gerard,Einstein and others determinists car crash is predetermined as well, just like every single particle in the universe.

I don't know if this is true, but I find it logical, because I see in my macroworld deterministic events all the time. If I a throw apple, it will fall down to the ground, it will not land in every random place in this universe, if I push on brake pedal, car will decelerate, it will not...

I already write in post #59 that I respect different opinions, because I know human "neurons fire differently", so we can't do anything about it. I am a prisoner of my own neural wiring. I don't know who is right, but we agree that there is only one truth.

Ok thanks

Some members have quotes at the bottom of every post, where can I add this option? Does everybody have this option?

I explain why I think free will is just illusion. Quotes from Einstein, Spinoza, Schopenhauer, Penrose,Hawkings, Green, Sapolsky etc etc I just use as example that I am not alone. I respect members' different opinions. It's completely normal to have different viewpoints on a topic that can't be...
