BBELLA: Isn't life just one great experiment being sought by us all, each individually as well as socially? Seek and you will find, as the scripture say. Yet, even so, we cannot see the result or the complete picture, of what this means.

Especially when sceptical agnostics cast doubt on subjective opinions that claim to be based on objective realities!-The issue is we have no objective reality at the quantum level. And it underlies the level we experience. Quantum reality is seen as the probability we can calculate from the random actions of all the particles. We live with quantum averages and can use these to create electronic machines that work. But in the purely quantum level what is it we have? No one knows. But it is the basis of the universe. No one has any real understanding of this. So we are stuck. How long can a person search and how far, if there is no real answer and probably can never be?
