Humans, science and the ''realm''

Postby tess on March 11th, 2011, 1:25 pm 

In my humble opinion, human’s reality is not the state of things as they actually exist.


In the Newtonian way and classical mechanics the world was measurable; the measurements hoped to reveal the true state.

Prior, the science claimed that the sun orbits round the earth.

Was this truth? No, because humans often describe reality in terms of subjective experience.

Advanced math and Quantum physics has shown us that reality goes beyond our experience.


Planck has shown that we cannot experience the physical reality beyond a certain limit.

If the universe is just an enormous wave function there is a huge probability of different words and realms. With our limited senses we can’t access or comprehend them.

Some of us are so arrogant to claim to be able to identify the true state of the world.

In my opinion even with our advanced math and physics we are only touching a reality.

I agree with you fully tess... I specially find it arrogant of those that assume with all due certainty that the very element of 'time' is not material. We are only so limited by our senses of understanding of the very fabric of this universe, and like you said, with all accrued human knowledge we are indeed only 'touching a reality'.
