I have been working on further concepts implied by my theory. One of those came up in a forum the other day when someone wanted me to talk about "particles". What I told him led him to ask me if I was saying particles didn't exist and that led to me sharing these short "quantum" tales:

"They don't exist as a "thing". They are evolving events. An electron is neither a particle nor a wave. It is an electron, which can display both properties depending on how we observe it.

This is why I don't like discussing particles. Of course we consider a ball to be a "particle" for practical purposes, but it is not. It is an interaction of the waveform probabilities within the continuum. When you are not looking at your ball, it doesn't even exist for you.

We can never find a way to formulate absolute quantum determination because our actions, including thoughts, hopes, expectations and observations, affect the next instant’s manifestation of events.

For instance, I have a sea glass business and would ocean kayak to my favorite collecting site. I landed at the beach one day and found two marbles right next to each other right next to my kayak. They were just plain, colorless, well frosted, marbles but marbles are rarer than reds (which are 1 in 5,000 pieces) and to find two right next to each other is remarkable.

So I said, "Lord, (the Creator is neither male nor female, but this is how I address It) thank you. I sure would like to find a red marble, though. I've got a blue one, and I thank you, but I sure would like to find a red one. Please, Lord?"

I put that thought aside and went back picking and after about 2 hours I was tired and it was time to go tide-wise, but there was just a little more beach to cover, so I decided to just make a quick pass and see if I could spot anything big just lying on top. Normally I would walk very slowly, looking for the gems amongst all the other glass.

Just before I got to the end there was this huge red marble. It's 15/16ths of an inch in diameter. It is a beautiful blood red with a white swirl that forms a wave. Click on the link below to view it.

I rolled my eyes up and went, "Lord!, Oh God! Dear Lord, etc." Then, when I bent down to pick up the marble, there were also two pieces of jewelry quality RED glass, one on either side of the marble. I went, "Oh, Lord! Dear God!, etc.” a bunch more and danced around with tears in my eyes. This is how the Creator talks to me. The two red pieces, to me, were the Creator saying the marble was not a coincidence, that I asked for red and got red. The odds of finding all three together are just too vast for it to be otherwise.

I would also note that I had only pictured a small, regular sized red marble when I asked. I find the Creator always gives us a much better version of what we ask for than what we imagined. I believe this is because the Creator has a by far greater imagination than we do.

The point here is that neither the marble, nor even that section of beach it lay upon, existed for me until I observed them and all the superposition possibilities collapsed into my reality, which was partly determined by my wishes, faith and expectations. This eliminates the possibility of the formulation of an absolute quantum determination.

It is also why I don't like discussing "particles".  :)

I don't include the above in my paper because it is indeterminate.


                           The Girl and Reds
One day there was a girl about age 8 or 9 at the beach. She was only looking for reds (1 in 5,000 pieces). In 2 hours, she found 9 reds, whereas I, who was looking for whatever, would find a red every 3 or 4 months.

At one point she came running up to me and starting talking to me and as we were finishing up she looked down and picked up a beautiful red right from right between my feet.

I wanted to strangle that poor little girl.  :)

Children tend to find what they are looking for because they believe they can.

                          A Stranger’s Faith
I began my business by selling on the headlands. One day a man came down and asked me where to look. I told him there was a slag pile in the cove next to me and that because it replenished the beach he might find something rare like a red.

He came back in about 15 minutes with a beautiful red and asked me where else he could look. Knowing what was happening and laughing to myself,  I told him he could go to the beach behind me and that there was much more glass there and maybe he could find something even rarer, like a grape purple, which are 1 in 10,000 pieces.

He came back in about 20 minutes with a beautiful grape purple. I found about 1 a year.  :)

He simply believed what I told him, as would a little child. Sound familiar?

Yeah, because determinism doesn't exist.

Delusional people often have their own 'version' of reality.

And a final point ...
Only an ignorant fool, or ancient people who didn't know better, ascribe processes that they don't understand to a 'Creator'.

These stories prove there is no absolute quantum determinism because the observer's mental state helps determine the outcome. Ask and you recieve, seek and you find.

It is a quantum world. Only logical possibilities exist before observation.

"Matter" is made up of electrons and quarks, which evolve forward nearly at the speed of light, c, in a holographic continuum that evolves at c at the invariant 1 s/s rate of the universe as a whole and in each observer. Tis is why the speed of light is c.

When we observe, we get a freeze frame of one of those possibilties because when we look at something moving at c, time appears to stop. Thus we can look back billions of yeats in space because photons travel at c.

These stories demonstrate that our wishes and merely desies, effect what is materialized for us in teh next instant.

This is how much the observer effects the observed.

The attached paper is my most recent paper, which is currently under review. #10 of a series that includes math proofs of the holograph and unified field.

It explains the primitive field the model is evolved from. Please refer to teh referenced peer reviewed papers for derivations and proofs of the holographic continuum and unified field before commenting here.

No, I'm not going to read your paper; I have better things to do than waste time.

I would like to point out that I can collapse a wave function, from a superposition of possible states, to a single observable, with an apparatus, or any interaction mechanism.
Does that mean inanimate objects, or mechanisms, also have 'consciousness' that can render reality ?

Narratives that tell you how to sort out the way to think about QM are called interpretations. Actual QM, or any competing theory, would be able to make specific predictions.

There’s no actual science here.

To your question in the title, this belongs in speculations. There is religion here, but it’s what you invoked, no in QM.

Anecdotes are not evidence. Coincidences happen all the time.

Exactly, it happens all the time, This is because it is evolving around us, for us....

The author owns a museum and rents space in a large building. Across the hall there was a video rental store that sold movie snacks and one day the author noted they sold caramel corn.

When he got back to the museum, he had a strong craving for the caramel corn, which he hadn’t had in decades, but resisted the strong urge several times since he knew if he got started on caramel corn, he would get into it and in a month have to go on a diet to lose the five pounds he gained eating the caramel corn.

The author brings fruit for snacks each day and when he is done with it he throws away the rind or whatever is left in the trash can outside what was then the video

store, and is now a video game store, as it is emptied daily, unlike the trash can in his museum.

Later that day, he ate his fruit and walked over to throw away the residue and in the trash can, right on top, was an unopened bag of caramel corn. Of course, he took the corn and got into it for a month and when he finally stopped eating it had to go on a diet for a month to lose the five pounds he gained eating it. Thus, we do not have to directly ask for something. The Creator also responds just to desire and, in this case, with a great sense of humor.

Did that bag of caramel corn just materialize there for the author? In the quantum sense, yes, but if we had a video camera on the trash can, and we searched the video, we would find it came there through the natural course of events, like someone overweight who bought the caramel corn in the video store, but had second thoughts about it on the way out and simply threw it away. That is, of course, a possibility, as improbable it is as a mere coincidence.

However, if we had no way to go back and look, it would be the same as if it just materialized there, as our worlds are always materializing around us for us out of what are just the logical possibilities and all that is needed is the logical possibility it could occur, not that that possibility actually occurred.

As in the “Biblical Tales”[14] paper, miracles will always appear to have occurred in the natural course of events when scrutinized.

This effect due to scrutinization is similar to what we see in the dual slit phenomenon with the electron.

If we have a solid barrier with two slits in it and have a screen behind the barrier, when we fire an electron at the screen midway between the slits, we will see that the electron passes through both slits simultaneously and behaves like a wave, creating a wave interference pattern on the screen. However, if we put a video camera on one of the slits to observe what is happening, the electron will pass only through that one slit and leave a single dot on the screen as though it is a particle.

So, is the electron a wave or a particle? It is neither. It is just an electron and how we scrutinize it affects what we see it as.

“Because” is the problem here. If you want to assign a causal relationship you need to obtain actual scientific evidence with a systematic study, and show that it’s not something that happens randomly.

Correlation is not causality, and confirmation bias does not even show correlation.

Here is another favorite. The attached paper shows,mathematically, how the universe nolds from within us.

When the author began his sea glass jewelry business, he used to sit down near "Glass Beach", where he collected his sea glass, to sell his jewelry to the tourists.

He was sitting there the second week he began selling in June, 2005, reading "The DaVinci Code" to pass his time.

He had just read about a five-petaled rose, pictured with 3 leaves in the book, the major symbol in the book because it represents the Holy Grail, which is what the book is about. What he had read was, "The rose is synonymous with the Grail", and was sitting there thinking about that when a woman came back up off the beach and asked him if it was usual to find rose-colored glass.

Journal of Cosmology, Vol. 20, pp. 8815 - 8848

He said, "No, rose is very rare. I don't even have any." It is about 1:3,000 pieces and I had only been collecting for a couple o weeks.

She said, "Well, I found a piece," and put her hand in her pocket. He expected her to pull out a small pebble. Instead, she handed him one of the most beautiful pieces of beach glass he had ever seen come off the beach at that point.

He looked at it and was totally in awe when he saw it had a perfect five-petaled rose on it, complete with three leaves: the very same rose he was reading about in the book when she walked up! Figure 2.

When he showed her what he had just read and the picture in the book, she gave him the piece of sea glass. He tried to turn it down, but she insisted.

The kicker to this tale is that she was from "Santa Rosa", or "Saint Rose", California.

A friend of the author, Rachel, from New Brunswick, Canada, found a piece with the same pattern and identified the pattern online. It was made by Jennifer Glass between 1932 and 1934, and the pattern name is “Adam”, which means “man”.

A bag of caramel corn ( about 50 gm ) contains about 150 calories.
A large apple ( about 250 gm ) contains about 150 calories.
I doubt you'd need to go on a diet after switching one for the other after about a month.

That is how science is done; you quantify things so you can make testable predictions, not simply wave your hands like you do in all your anecdotal ( made up ? ) non-sensical posts.
And you should know that if you profess to edit a reputable ( ? ) scientific journal.

The Japan story that follows is just to demonstrate that the world is not always what we think it is;

The author began his business by selling on the headlands above the beaches. One day a man came down and asked him where to look. He told the man there was a slag pile in the cove next to him and that because it replenished the beach he might find something rare like a red.

He came back in about 15 minutes with a beautiful red and asked the author where else he could look. Knowing what was happening and laughing to himself, he told him he could go to the beach behind him and that there was much more glass there and maybe he could find something even rarer, like a grape purple.

He came back in about 20 minutes with a beautiful grape purple. Grape purples are one of the rarest colors, being just 1 in 10,000 pieces. The author found only four in ten years of collecting.

The man simply believed what he was told, as would a child. Sound familiar?

JAPAN:

This is a different tale in that it is about what was not found.

In the ninetenn seventies, I was the Second Officer on a ship going to the Far East. The ship was running a direct great circle, the shortest route, between San Fransico and southern Japan.

The Second Officer is the ship’s navigator and stands the four to eight watch in the morning and evening so he can get star fixes during twilight, when both the stars and horizon are visible. In those days, the star fixes were the most accurate positions we got on the open ocean.

On the morning we were to make landfall, after a twenty-two day passage, the sky was crystal clear with no moon and the stars were all shining brightly, allowing me to shoot six stars that plotted as a perfect pinwheel on the chart a perfect fix.

At eight A M, I got off watch and told the Captain we would be making landfall at ten A M.

At noon, I was called to the bridge and the Captain asked me where Japan was. He said I told him we would see it at ten and now it was noon and there was still no Japan there.

Celestial navigation was done longhand in a notebook and the Captain checked my fix and everything was as it should be, including average speed for the day’s run, fuel consumption in barrels per mile and the amount of propellor slip, which are important figures for the Chief Engineer.

Everything worked out perfectly, except Japan wasn’t there until two more hours, two P M. It was sixty miles further than it was supposed to be.

I have asked cartographers if perhaps the hills and valleys in the ocean might account for it and they said that would only be a mile or so.

No answer was found.

Years later I was Captain of another ship and it was on a great circle from San Fransico to Yokohama, Japan, the same route.

Two days from Yokohama, I called in my Second Officer and asked him to work a great circle backwards from Yokohama to our present position. By then this was done by a navigation computer in just a few minutes.

After about an hour, the Second Officer came down and nervously started apologizing for his error, which he couldn’t figure out, and said that there was an additional sixty miles to go and I stopped him and told him it wasn’t his fault and explained my own experience.

It is rare that ships cross the entire Pacific on a great circle because other stops or weather can require changes and I only did it on those two voyages.

It does not occur on aircraft. Just ships and, possibly, just those two ships on those two voyages. But I prefer to think not and that, if one were to sail a great circle from San Francisco to Japan today, that Japan would not be there.

I didn't switch one for the other. I just added the caramel corn. At 76, my metabolism is lower and I can gain a pound just by looking at a pint of ice cream. :)

Scientists tend to be skeptical of numbers presented without reference, and anecdotes presented without systematic study.

The religious, and crackpots, and people who don’t understand probability and statistics (these groups have overlap), can find great meaning in them

I am an expert in Sea Glass and its odds. I own the Sea Glass Museum in Fort Bragg, CA and have what is probably the world's most extensive collection of over 250,000 pieces I personally collected. The odds can also be found in Richerd LaMotte's award winning book, "Pure Sea Glass". LaMotte is co-founder of the Inernational Sea Glass Association.

I am not "religious" as most people perceive it. I have demystified the Bible, explaining all the miracles in the normal course of events in the attached preprint, which nearly all, ~1700, of the theologians in the top 72 English-speaking divinity schools have read. I also turned Jesus back into a normal man, just like you and me.

To me, "religion" is just what we do or don't do for our own welfare and the welfare of the community at large. If you brush your teeth every day, you do so religiously and have religion, whether you believe in the Creator or not. Spirituality, on the other hand, is your relationship with the greater life inhabiting your body, which it is creating as you live and breath.

I already shared TDC5, showing how the universe unfolds from within us. TDC4, which is attached, explains the One Life.
