Thanks for your reply Neo. I've had company in from Germany this week and have been rather rushed, but would like to explore this topic further with you. My "everything is everything" theory (actually it's not "mine") is something I've been nurturing since I was 19 (I'm now 39). During this time I've never seriously studied Physics for correspondence--I just liked looking at the world through the lens of this theory--it is fun and stimulating to me to exercise my mind in this manner, and when given a challenge to explain it(as I have been here), I like responding. The wisdom of my attempting to correlate the Middle East conflict to the Law of Conservation of Angular Momentum in 10 minutes and 200 words or less while trying to edit a piece of music and fielding phone calls may be questionable, but it was fun, and though a rough sketch, I see in it (and my other attempts at similar correlations with Physical Laws) pearls of insight I can polish. Based on the resistance I've met here ( an "equal and opposite reaction"?), I've begun reading up on Quantum Physics and have been magnetized to the work of David Bohn. (From an overview of his thinking) David Bohm - A Higher Multi-Dimensional Order. In his book "Wholeness and the Implicate Order" Bohm suggests that the strange effects of the Quantum world may imply the existence of a a deeper, non-local level of reality. At this level - called the implicate order - all things are interconnected in an unbroken whole; "everything interpenetrates everything". Our observational world - which Bohm calls the explicate order - has access to this underlying reality in only a partial and incomplete fashion. Bohm's view has been likened to the suggestion that the Universe is a multi-dimensional hologram; any little piece of the hologram will recover the image, but not the full reality. We are reminded of Blake's wish - "to see the world in a grain of sand". To me it sounds like we're playing the same melody in different keys.Interesting stuff.
