Contra Metaphysical Idealism

RE: Contra Metaphysical Idealism
We have to be careful at this point because we are at the limits of our understanding. Under-rant. All we have is the standard mode and it is incomplete.

"Idea": to have an "idea" something has to be exchanged. Some type of "information" stored in a state of a "particle" and then exchanged with another "particle" in A meaningful pattern. There is, because of Heisenberg, particles that can live very short lives. They violate the conservation laws, that's why they call them "virtual". ITS VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE ... BUT THEY DO IT".

When I use the words "thing", "something", or "substance" I mean a "particle", " gauge boson, Or a combination of both. Or something unknown, like "space", dark matter", and "dark energy". "space seems to be something, like a rubber matt. They don't know what it is yet. But they took a gyroscope in space and it was deflected off of "center" by the warping of space due to the earth's mass as predicted by Einstein's equations.

Quantum mechanics"; "little discrete pieces" is what it means. Like a Lego in a bin of legos. It doesn't mean "nothing". When you get down to the quantum level your idea's become problematic because we don't know what's going on. It is all "waving" and "Probability". "probability" means they don't know what it is, but rather how "it" tends to work. "quantized". If space is quantize. For simplicity let's just look in two dimensions, it may look like a screen window. We may only be able to get down to the gaps. But not between them, Both notions still unknown as of yet.

Now we can look at this "waving" property. Could space be waving in such a manner that there are meaning "patters" generating particles? Well, guess what, there is. Where the field interact "in part from waving" you can get a spike in the field and that field is a particle. Like an electron. But this field is "bosons". at lot of them. It is "something". Maybe space itself waves.

I agree with your notions. But you can't separate "idea's", better stated as "information", from some type of particle state, or force carrier state. Also, maybe this "information" is being delivered by interactions between multiverse. Still unknown, but they are looking. we cant, take out the "particles" to 'send" information, at least not yet.

we could explore "spooky action" at a distance also.
