Bell's theory could be absolutely right, I don't know if it is, I'm completely unqualified to comment on that. But even if Bell's theory were 100% correct and there is no local cause for quantum randomness, it's an entirely other step to call that non-local cause "god" as if it has anything to do with your god.(October 31, 2014 at 11:36 am)FatAndFaithless Wrote: I completely don't understand Bell's theorem, not even close. Apologies if I made a wrong conclusion, I guess I was just more trying to push the fact that Bell's Theorem (according to wikipedia of course) still isn't some absolute truth.
Bell's theorem is what we got at the moment. Your counter argument is "Heywood you are wrong because Bell's theorem isn't some absolute truth...it could be wrong...it just hasn't been shown wrong yet"
Isn't that an atheism of the gaps argument?
