SPACE,TIME AND TRUTH!!

Well i'm sure most of you will be familiar with quantum theory..hold it!! dont turn away at the sound of physics..this is not a scientific article..this is not stuff to purge your scientific hunger.you might end up laughing at me by the end of it...

This is an honest exploration of a theory and its philosophical relevance.I hope you dont take my work too seriously..its just a meandering of thoughts given the manifestation of words...

so here I go..well so my question..have you read the quantum theory..NOPE doesnt matter..but I hope most of the guys who come across this work must be familiar withit..and I'm sure you weren't shocked by it..well I wasn't coz I never really thought about it..but one day I happened to read Michael Crichton..and I was amazed.really the world of knowledge thats portrayed around us is not as impervious as it seems.. well let me put forward two quotes that I'm sure will drive home my point..

"Anyone who is not shocked by Quantum Theory does not understand it" - Neils Bohr(1927)

"Nobody understands Quantum Theory" - Richard Feynman

Well ..where does that lead us..do you know that an experiment was done when a single photon caused interference..if it sounds too technical..just let me say that an experiment was done which suggested that either the same photon is in 2 places at the same instant of time..or it suggests something that we cannot quite acknowledge at the moment..and I won't lead you on by offering any sparkling hypothesis..well I just wonder where has the innocence gone..why are we reluctant to acknowledge the wonders that may exist around us..why when we were taught interference, this experiment was never mentioned..why are we not taught that matter is not continuous at subatomic dimensions..why are we not taught about quantum foam..why are we never told about things that are there and mystify us..is there any shame in being mystified..I really don't comprehend..not that I have ever compehended the human species and its functioning, especially in heterogeneous groups which still function with amazing uniformity in some fields...

Well enough of the quantum stuff..now lets talk about the power of thought..well one day I was thinking about the power religion has..the power faith has..what really is the source of it all..it really amazed me to see religions that have stood stern tests and have come out unscathed ..even emerging stronger than before..

Well then another day i was thinking of interference of light ..and it struck me..what the heck...is this the secret..I mean what is religion..its a set of ideals, set of values that proclaim a way of life..and what really spurs it on is the belief factor..how do you get the people to follow what you say..you give them stories..you give them heroes to worship..o god are the earthlings desperate for hero-worship..nothing wrong with that..perfect ..and so what we get is millions of people thinking about at least some damn thing in a particular way..think of millions of thought-waves (rather though-particles if we go by quantum physics) very similar in nature..what do they do when they flow together...haha...elementary higher school physics..they bloody interfere.. and what we get is a pattern..shades of darkness and fringes of light..goodness me .it is getting scary..too true and relevant to be believed..I dare not dream further..or you all will just brand me a maniac...I hope I'm joking..
