Quantum
Reality
Modern physicists do not have a
single picture of "the way the world really is;" instead there are
eight ideas of "quantum reality." These eight views of reality are
quite different; yet all are considered by leading scientists to be
valid, or a least successful in terms of explaining
experiments.
Worldviews of Prominent Physicists and Philosophers
There is no deep reality.
Reality is created by observation.
Reality is an undivided wholeness.
Reality consists of a steadily increasing number of parallel
universes.
The world obeys a non-human kind of reasoning.
The world is made of ordinary objects.
Consciousness creates reality.
The world is twofold, consisting of potentials and
actualities
Scientists will admit that quantum theories do not correspond to
"common sense"---meaning, the law of cause and effect. The
principal features of quantum theory contradict "cause and effect"
relationships by assuming that random, spontaneous events can and
do occur within a quantified limit (specified by the Heisenberg
Uncertainty Principle).
The majority of leading modern physicists seriously believe the
first view; "There is no deep reality" and claim that there is no
objective reality. For them, "physics is not physical, but
metaphysical."
