Does Quantum Mechanics Explain "The Supernatural"

Ever hear of the Chasm of Ignorance? No, QM doesn't explain the supernatural. In fact, we can barely explain QM. We are learning new things every single day and throwing out old theories every single day. To even suggest that QM can explain the supernatural is quite a LEAP because almost everything we know about QM is theory.

>Quantum Mechanics is basically a theory which proposes the idea that an infinite number of parallel universes/dimensions exist alongside our own

>>18650814
Please point me, to the part of theory where they can't.

Interesting stuff, but unfortunelty my problem with all these infinite universe reality crap, is that it is a theory NOT proven and It is not true from what I know.

When they say infinite realities, they mean infinite possibilities but only a few are even inhabited/work. the rest are empty and unused. There is not an infinite number of the same person, the soul CAN be separated into many pieces but ti gets weaker every time and can only be done a few times.

It is more effective to keep oneself whole however.

Imagine an infinite number of cups, but only X amount has soil in it and some creatures or things may thrive in one or a few but not all or others.

>>18650818
Could explain and do explain are two very different things. In theory, anything could explain everything for all we know--in theory, of course. That's all a theory is. A theory can only be formed when LOGICAL connections are made from facts to support the idea.

>>18650813
Yeah, I'm by no means an expert. I'm just asking if that whole "interdimensional/parallel universe" shit can at least explain some of the weird shit that people who believe in the supernatural claim to have experienced.

>>18650830
It can't explain shit unless it's true, so no. Making those kinds of conclusions from what we do know and theorize from QM is like talking about what you'll name your kids on the first date. You just don't do it.

>>18650825
What's this "soul splitting" you speak of?

Its more of a measure of a specific part of 'the field of probability' which comes basically from cause and effect. I'm not going into it any deeper just because you show such a lack of understanding.

But more or less its not parallel universes its the probability of a particle making in from the source to the destination without anomily. But sometimes the particle acts as if a different set of causes were in play, that had never happened because one can't observe 100%

>>18650843

The only way someone or something to inhabit more than one of the limited used realities is to chop itself up into pieces but it gets weaker everytime it is done

>Quantum Mechanics is basically a theory which proposes the idea that an infinite number of parallel universes/dimensions exist alongside our own

i think you're mixing that up with string theory

>>18650835
Is there even the slightest possibility that science will one day be able to prove "the supernatural" is all I want to know. That whole multiple dimensions shit goes well over our human heads, but it's still a subject that's taken seriously by physicists.

No.

There's a big difference between an infinite number of universes COULD exist and that they DO exist.

Think about it. You could have a universe where everything is the same as this one except one single atom was missing, and then another parallel universe where everything is the same as our universe expect one other different single atom is missing... and so on and so on. Then do the same for TWO missing atoms. And then three... That's retarded, it'd be an endless series of pointless differences. Look at life on Earth, lots of different animals but they fit different roles, not just different because they can be. Even non-organic matter is arranged in ways due to reasons, not just to be different than some other one.

Quantum Mechanics is cool enough without, "Whoa, infinite slightly different universes exist just 'cause man, pass the bong."

>>18650855
I ain't Sheldon Cooper, mate. I'm scientifically illiterate.

>>18650854
Link me something about this. I'm interested i learning more about it.

>a theory which proposes the idea that an infinite number of parallel universes/dimensions exist alongside our own.

Wrong.

Think of English, with the 26 letters you COULD make an infinite number of words. You could just keep adding one letter to LAAAAA... for instance to make a new word. But just because you could doesn't mean those words exist somewhere that we can't detect.

>>18650818
Point to me the part of steam engines and study thereof that says we can't live in infinite parallel universes.

I can't believe how misinformed you people are, please refer to Wikipedia. I don't even know where to start correcting people.

Yes, and you're going in the right direction for someone who wants to explore those topics.

It is also true that the specialists in quantum mechanics are some of the worst people to ask, if you want to learn anything about quantum mechanics. It is indeed true that their method of studying the science is inadequate, and that they do not have the solid foundation of logic necessary to differentiate theory from reality.

If you wish to learn about quantum mechanics in a way that is actually based on reality, then I would suggest studying computer science instead. All of quantum mechanics is just physicists using the discrete form of mathematics developed by computer programmers, and trying to apply that to their century old understanding of physical reality.They are consistently behind the curve, in regards to new information regarding the quantum nature of reality.

Specialists in quantum mechanics are more like historians of a very specific1930s style of thinking. This is fascinating, and I love reading through their historical record keeping. They're not doing much in the way of invention, however. Haven't since the 1930s.

What's up next, in the way of quantum mechanics, is the invention of different kinds of processors. You have the traditional transistor, which essentially takes ancient Greek logic, and makes it into a shape. Can you think of anything to do with that?

If so, you have what it takes to join the leading edge of consciousness, in regards to quantum mechanics, which is being studied by computer scientists.

>>18651735
Not that anon, but seriously QM is not just one theory, you people clearly havnt even looked at a wiki article regarding the subject. It would be like trying to teach English to a chimpanzee.

>>18651773
Thanks, mate. It seems like most posters on this thread didn't even bother to try to answer my question.

>>18651792
Sure thing. Like I said. They're more like historians, than engineers.

They have a story to tell, a set of preprogrammed responses that may or may not be relevant to what you actually asked, but share a few key words here and there. And, by their own admittance, nothing they say actually affects the future, going forward. It's just theory.

Historians.

They reached quantum levitation by experimenting with cooled superconductors.

I think they have been inventing enough.

>>18651824
>cooled superconductors.

Do you know where superconductors came from? Do you know what branch of technology came up with the methods for devising superconductors?

>>18651824
That is not quantem levitation, just labeled as such by those who don't understand.
Without going into detail it is the electrical pressure flowing through the superconductors being so intense it creates a field if inertia around it separate to that of your atmosphere. Its basically using energy to counter gravity in a field relative to the frequency and potential of the energy flowing through your conductor, or superconducter in this instance

>>18651859
Forgot to add superconductor are pretty much the only way to do this as well they don't have the resistance of normal metals

>>18651859
They use quantum flux tubes to generate quantum trapping, so it's valid to call it quantum levitation.

I'm beginning to think that you just hate the term, cause it's been memed ad nauseum.

It's also an ancient technique, dating back to the 1930s.

The Meissner effect is popular in schools today, because it's a low cost, relatively safe science experiment, that visually demonstrates a phenomena of magnetics. Kids can do it on youtube, and it's been trending there in recent years. It is by no means the cutting edge of scientific discovery on Earth, at this time.

>starts thread by telling everyone what quantum mechanics is
>evidently completely ignorant of copenhagen interpretation, pilot-wave theory, or literally any other metaphysical explanation of quantum 'weirdness'

Just go watch some actual fucking lectures on YouTube; they're not difficult to find. I recommend Leonard Susskind.

There are an infinite number of parallel dimensions. However they exist forward and backward in time, meaning it'd be impossible to hop between them. Once this dimension ends, a new one will take its place.

>>18650807

Wrong. QM does not PROPOSE infinitely many parallel universes. That's one interpretation. And it lacks more explanation than any other explanation attempt, including the Kopenhagen interpretation.
