We seem to be thinking right along the same lines Flash, only difference being I don't think (FWIW) that other probabilities are ever rejected in the over all scheme of things. They are only rejected by the individual making the decision to choose one probability over the others in the moment. Every probability that we even consider becomes it's own reality (IMO), it's own version of "us". Only "we" do not become a part of that particular reality, in lieu of having focused on a different one.Posted by Flash (here)
To finish my thinking in my post above, once a timeline is fixed, and the other probabilities rejected, those other probabilities still exist in terms of information that we may consult and learn from (they are mathematical probabilities after all, and can always be reproduced or studied), but they are not determinant anylonger for the evolution of the individual or of the specie or even of the part of the universe they are in. Nothing is loss for learning purpose, but definitely it is for evolution/reality /soul experiencing purpose. Freedom and Choices of the creators are respected throughout. This is my opinion based on no scientific studies, just on common sense.
Not saying this is true by any means, but if you were Creator wishing to explore Itself, what better way to do it?
The "Double Slit" experiment is a mind bender in and of itself isn't it Limor? I disagree with the idea put forth that the micro behaves differently than the macro, kind of turns "as above so below, as below so above" upside down doesn't it? (hmmmm) I think you're correct in that it's a matter of our understanding of the phenomena, and it's that understanding, or better yet (mis) understanding, that creates the divide.Posted by Limor (here)
Matter may 'take on the properties of both particles and wave' quoting from George Dvorsky, but it is our understanding of the nature of those two that changes everything, it was not what we thought it was.
One thing we do seem to know for sure is that observation is the key to it all, and that is something we can all certainly do, and experiment with ourselves.




, just on common sense.
