AG, your deflections are as transparent as ever. Let’s cut through the nonsense.
1. QM and randomness: You’re conflating different ideas. Quantum mechanics describes probabilistic outcomes within a framework where events still have causal structures. But in a single-history universe, probabilities without realized events are meaningless. You keep dodging the point: if something never happens, assigning it a probability is pointless. This has nothing to do with QM’s randomness and everything to do with your inability to separate mathematical abstraction from physical reality. 2. "I try to avoid responding to your posts" Oh really? Your post history suggests otherwise. If you truly found my responses annoying, you’d stop engaging. Instead, you return like clockwork, complaining about “mind-reading” while making passive-aggressive psychoanalysis attempts of your own. 3. White Light Experience and Tao: This is a hard pivot from the discussion—classic AG move. If you want to talk about subjective experiences, that’s fine, but don’t pretend it validates your take on physics. And if you're using "Tao" as a shield against criticism, that’s just another distraction. So what’s next? Another round of dodging, or will you actually address the argument?
