Quantum Physics: conscious universe (General)

DAVID’s comment: These conclusions about consciousness and quantum mechanics cannot be avoided. The universe is based on quantum mechanics through the mind of God. Standing in front of a bus has nothing to do with this theory. All of this is at the level of energy particles which follow quantum rules and then join together to form the matter we appreciate.

dhw: But none of this negates the very real behaviour of the matter we all know, as exemplified by the impact of the hard bus on the soft flesh of the body. I do not claim to have the slightest understanding of quantum mechanics, but until there is a consensus among the experts that the universe is based on quantum mechanics through the mind of God, I’m afraid I shall have to take your statement with a very real pinch of salt.

DAVID: To repeat: "All of this is at the level of energy particles which follow quantum rules
and then join together to form the matter we appreciate." We all know the bus is solid. But matter appears out of the basic particles and constantly offers only one other ingredient requirement: consciousness. You don't want to face an obvious conclusion: whose consciousness, or is the consciousness free-floating and based on nothing or no one?

This whole website revolves around what you have quite rightly expressed as a question. It is not a conclusion.
