Knowing everything and allowing evil

[Oldandeasilyconfused]

But if you are open to the possibility that this higher being may actually be an intimate part of your very own consciousness, (or vice versa) then we might actually make some progress.

'May' as in 'possible'? I'm a skeptic,of course I concede the possibility. At present I'm unable to believe it to be the case.I will gladly change my mind as soon on as I see some proof.

As promised,I checked your claim about quantum fields being based on metaphysics.. I did so because I have only high school physics and do not claim to understand quantum physics..

I post a couple of replies I got from posting your claim on two other forums, from people who,unlike me have a bit of physics.

I thought a quantum field was a tool to describe the infinite number of possible degrees of freedom any quantum mechanical system contains, and to describe interactions within that quantum mechanical system. Saying a quantum field exists is akin to saying e=mc2 exists, it is just a tool for understanding nature, and as such is a representation. It helps us to make predictions about quantum mechanical interactions, and try to understand them. Obviously the quantum mechanical world is thought to "exist", otherwise we couldn't make observations and predictions.

The NAG is sort of correct, but not for the reasons he thinks. He's talking about two different things.

Quantum fields exist, can be measured, and can be described mathematically with great precision. They are the foundation on which physics is built.

Humans cannot conceptualize the quantum world. Our concepts are therefore rather metaphysical in nature, because that is the best we can do. It is not the quantum field which is metaphysical, it is our concepts which are (sort of).

Just because our conceptualization is somewhat metaphysical, it does not mean that quantum fields don't exist, nor does it mean that the question of the existence of a god, (an entirely metaphysical concept) is a legitimate science question.
