You're right I am assuming things are real, don't you? You don't seem to be able to talk to me without getting very agitated. Why is that? Are your own positions so weak? It is you that jumped in to a discussion uninvited. I merely set forth The proposition.
All effects must by necessity, have a cause.
Apparently you don't believe that, please explain why effects do not need a cause.
I pointed out that if you want to dispense with cause and effect then you cannot in the next breath turn around and invoke cause and effect to support your arguments in other areas of science. It seems to me that you are the one in wonderland ,Alice.
I said I am not inclined to trust the theoretical speculations of quantum physics because they seem self contradicting and unprovable. I didn't say I throw them out. I don't claim to understand quantum physics and I don't see you claiming to either. So while I have merely expressed doubt about the veracity of QM, you, (oh faithful one) want to accept something you don't understand, that sounds like blind faith to me.
BTW Claims are not arguments, but they are not assumptions either, are they?
Imagine, me, having the nerve to question the reasoning of someone as great as you. It's staggering really, isn't it? Since you make no claims and offer no reasons, what's there to question? |
