Not sure why we're talking QM though.....here again we see the stolen concept in action. QM and QFT, both -very firmly- rooted in materialism.
They are rooted in the idea of materialism, and the principles of observation and experimentation. However, the foundations of modern science have their roots in bouncing billiard balls and falling apples, and have been more and more strained as observations become more refined. It is not necessary for QM to be true for idealism to be true-- it is evidence that an idealist can present to a materialist that their world view is inconsistent with the best observations people can currently make.
To me, the circularity of assuming there is other than mind, despite having nothing but mind with which to establish truths, is sufficient to take as the default position that all is mind. Yes, there COULD be an objective, non-mental reality: but given that we have no way to establish this, and that every physical idea is, after all, just the experience of an idea, we might as well take the position that an invisible Sky Daddy exists. Maybe he does, but why take that position when it adds nothing?
