Neither does anyone else in my field. We keep proving stuff that never actually happened\u201d.<\/h5>\n<h5>\u201cOur cover is blown, what can I say? he added.<\/h5>\n<h5>Dr. Goswami\u2019s comments came after yet another alleged breakthrough in quantum mechanics which claims the universe has existed forever, as opposed to being created by a \u2018big bang\u2019.<\/h5>\n<h5>\u201cOver the years there have been just a handful of us pretending to know something about the universe that no one else does,\u201d he went on. \u201cBut this is all lies to feed the charade. I\u2019ve had some great times during the years, travelling the world and giving talks on our pretend finds\u201d.<\/h5>\n<h5>When asked how he got away with it for so long, he replied:<\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u201cI found out a long time ago that everything can be proven with a mathematical equation. Now, I mean everything; from unicorns, fire-breathing dragons, God and even the G-spot. None of it is true. Me and the handful that know the truth have been riding the Quantum Physicist celebrity wave for quite some time now, but it must end \u2013 before someone gets hurt\u201d.<\/h5>\n<h5>The University of Oregon professor warned that the European Organisation for Nuclear Research, known as CERN, could potentially wipe out the entire planet if the project is not put to a halt.<\/h5>\n<h5>\u201cSeriously, when myself, Higgs and Ben (Benjamin Lockspeiser, CERN\u2019s first president) first pitched the idea, we never thought it would get funding. It was gonna cost billions for Christ\u2019s sake,\u201d he recalled. \u201cFuck knows what the thing does \u2013 no one does. Firing particles at each other at the speed of light can\u2019t end well. I\u2019m just worried now we took the joke too far\u201d.<\/h5>\n<h5>Ending the interview, professor Goswami apologised for \u201cspoofing\u201d everybody over the years. \u201cI\u2019m coming near the end of my days now and I just want to get this off my chest,\u201d he said. \u201cI just hope the world can forgive us\u201d.<\/h5>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/waterfordwhispersnews.com\/2015\/02\/10\/we-honestly-have-no-fucking-idea-what-were-doing-admits-leading-quantum-physicist\/\">Source <\/a><\/p>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: center;\">On Quantum Physics, God and the After-Life<\/h1>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: center;\">by Lasha Darkmoon<\/h1>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Dead-or-alive cat vs. Uncertainty Principle<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/heisenberg.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-112796\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/heisenberg-300x214.png\" alt=\"heisenberg\" width=\"540\" height=\"387\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/heisenberg-300x214.png 300w, https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/heisenberg.png 850w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h5><strong>Reader, here are a few random notes on quantum physics which may be of interest to you.<\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5>I have just learned that the website that published the above article specializes in <em>satirical spoofs<\/em>. So quantum physics fans can relax! The above article was satire. The weird and wonderful world of quantum physics, complete with Schr\u00f6dinger\u2019s cat and an infinite number of parallel universes, is still with us.<\/h5>\n<h5>I am also reliably informed that the nice Indian professor, Dr Goswami, never uses such bad language in his lectures and seminars and that his students would recoil in horror if he kept coming out with the F-word in such a shocking manner. Having said that, however, I must add that any student of quantum physics will tell you that there is bound to be a universe, <em>somewhere<\/em>\u00a0or other, in which another version of Dr Goswami is doing just that \u2014 swearing like a trooper and using the F-word!<\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>According to quantum physics, there is a universe in which Hitler won the Second World War. This is not science fiction. It is fact. <\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>In that other alternative universe, every bit as valid as the one we inhabit, Hitler killed all the Jews in the world and there was not a single Jewish survivor left to tell the tale, nor a single Holocaust museum to commemorate the extermination of the Jews. <\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong><em>But wait!<\/em> there is also a universe in which Hitler killed no Jews at all\u2014not systematically and in large numbers\u2014because he never intended to holocaust them in the first place! In such a universe, large numbers of Jews survived and went on to allege the extermination of six million Jews and to build numerous Holocaust museums to commemorate that fictitious event.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>I am not being facetious, nor am I stating that <em>this<\/em> is the universe where this happened. I am simply saying that, according to quantum physics, there certainly IS a universe in which no Jews were systematically killed in gas chambers on the orders of Hitler.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>The variations to this story, of course, are infinite.<\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5>There is a universe in which the very concept of God does not exist and where not a single sentient being has even entertained that possibility.<\/h5>\n<h5>There are other universes where everyone, without exception, believes implicitly in God, for they experience him every day of their lives.<\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>There are universes full of demons, hellfire, everlasting torments.

There are more universes than there are grains of sand in all the galaxies of a thousand trillion planets. \u00a0<em>Yes!<\/em> there are more universes than there are drops of waters in the Infinite Ocean that swirls like a tempest in Brahman\u2019s brain!<\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5>To quote the subtitle of a <span style=\"color: #ffff00;\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/12672387-the-quantum-universe\"><span style=\"color: #ffff00;\">best-selling book<\/span><\/a><\/strong> <\/span>on quantum physics: \u201cEverything that can happen does happen.\u201d Or in the words of the English mystical poet William Blake, \u201cEverything possible to be believed is an image of the Truth.\u201d<\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a7<\/h5>\n<h5><strong>I am making none of this up<\/strong>. I don\u2019t have to. You will find it everywhere in quantum physics. And the insights of quantum physics can be found in the great Oriental religions.

According to its sub-title, this is \u201can exploration of the parallels between modern physics and Eastern mysticism.\u201d<\/h5>\n<h5>If you want to read a stimulating \u00a0essay about the great debt which quantum physics owes to Vedanta, you could try reading\u00a0<strong><span style=\"color: #ffff00;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.krishnapath.org\/quantum-physics-came-from-the-vedas-schrodinger-einstein-and-tesla-were-all-vedantists\/#more-3009\"><span style=\"color: #ffff00;\">How does quantum physics work, you may ask, what is it, and where does it come from<\/span><\/a><\/span>? <\/strong>This will tell you how the great insights of quantum physics are found prefigured in the Vedas.\u00a0Schr\u00f6dinger, Einstein and Tesla were apparently all heavily influenced by Vedantic philosophers such as Shankara, Ramanuja and Madhva.<\/h5>\n<h5>Much has been written on the theory of parallel universes. Here are a few books which I happen to have in my library. I haven\u2019t had time to read them all yet, but I hope to do so before I die: <span style=\"line-height: 1.7;\"><em>The Never-Ending Days of Being Dead<\/em>, by Marcus Chown; <\/span><em>Schr\u00f6dinger\u2019s<\/em><span style=\"line-height: 1.7;\"><em>\u00a0Kittens and the Search for Reality: Solving the Quantum Mysteries<\/em>, by John Gribbin;\u00a0<em>Parallel Worlds: The Science of Alternative Universes and our Future in the Cosmos<\/em>, by Michio Kaku.<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5>Inseparable from science is the idea of God. Even the most atheistical scientists appear to be haunted by the idea of God. Or of God\u2019s possibility. Even as they run from God, God\u2019s specter pursues them, never letting them rest. For according to the uncanny dictates of quantum physics, the mere possibility of God guarantees his existence. <em>Whatever can be, is.<\/em><\/h5>\n<h5>Amazingly, the world is full of irrational people who hate God because he <em>doesn\u2019t<\/em> exist. And if God\u2019s existence were suddenly proved to them, they would hate him even more for refuting their atheism!<\/h5>\n<h5>Two theoretical physicists who have obsessed about God at great length are Paul Davies and John Polkinghorne. See <em>The Mind of God: Science and the Search for Ultimate Meaning<\/em>, by Paul Davies; and <em>God and the New Physics, <\/em>by the same author. As for Professor John Polkinghorne, he has had no problem in reconciling quantum physics with Christianity. He has done so in numerous books whose titles can be found <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/John_Polkinghorne\">here<\/a><\/strong>. If you have time, read his short essay <em>Quarks, Chaos, and Christianity.<\/em><\/h5>\n<h5>Here is an extended quote from Polkinghorne about the veracity of miracles; or the possibility that there are times and places where the laws of physics are suspended:<\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u201cUnprecedented things [may occur]. After all, God is the ordainer of the laws of nature, not someone who is subject to them. However, precisely because they are his laws, simply to overturn them would be for God to act against God, which is absurd.<\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The theological question is, does it make sense to suppose that God has acted in a new way? One thing that is theologically incredible is that God is some sort of celestial conjuror, doing a turn to impress today that he didn\u2019t think of yesterday, and won\u2019t be bothered to do tomorrow. God can\u2019t be capricious. He must be utterly consistent. However, consistency isn\u2019t the same as dreary uniformity.<\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">In unprecedented circumstances, God can do unexpected things. Yet there will always be a deep underlying consistency that makes it intelligible, for example, that God raised Jesus from the dead that first Easter Day, while, in the course of present history, our experience is that dead men stay dead. The search for this consistency is the theological challenge of miracle.<\/h5>\n<h5>\u2014 <em>Quarks, Chaos, and Christianity<\/em> pp 82-83; quoted <span style=\"color: #ffff00;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.niceneguys.com\/miracles\/polkinghorne-miracles\"><span style=\"color: #ffff00;\">here<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/h5>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Schrodingers-cat.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-112797\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Schrodingers-cat-271x300.jpg\" alt=\"Schrodingers cat\" width=\"271\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Schrodingers-cat-271x300.jpg 271w, https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Schrodingers-cat.jpg 422w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 271px) 100vw, 271px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h5><strong>Professor Robert Lanza,\u00a0from Wake Forest University School of Medicine in North Carolina, maintains that quantum physics has conclusively proved the existence of an afterlife.<\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5>Lanza claims that his theory of biocentrism proves that death is an illusion.\u00a0He argues that the universe does not create life, but that life creates the universe.
