TL;DR Summary
Does Panpsynchism hold up to the test of quantum physics?
Is there any evidence that Panpsychism may hold its own in the quantum world? What quantum physics principals violate the ideology of Panpsychism? This is meant to be fun. I am curious what other people think.

No.
But then again, it’s hard to imagine anything that could be interpreted as evidence... maybe if you could suggest the sorts of things that you might consider evidence in support of panpsychism?
 
I was hoping that would be decided by the reader. Your question is a great question. I don't have an example. I am looking for examples. You don't know what you don't know. I was hoping someone smarter than I am would be able to think of some.

Such a question is out of scope for this forum. Panpsychism is philosophy, not physics.

Thread closed.

Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In her YouTube video Bell’s Theorem Experiments on Entangled Photons, Dr. Fugate shows how polarization-entangled photons violate Bell’s inequality. In this Insight, I will use quantum information theory to explain why such entangled photon-polarization qubits violate the version of Bell’s inequality due to John Clauser, Michael Horne, Abner Shimony, and Richard Holt known as the...
I understand that the world of interpretations of quantum mechanics is very complex, as experimental data hasn't completely falsified the main deterministic interpretations (such as Everett), vs non-deterministc ones, however, I read in online sources that Objective Collapse theories are being increasingly challenged. Does this mean that deterministic interpretations are more likely to be true? I always understood that the "collapse" or "measurement problem" was how we phrased the fact that...
