[Non sequitur]

Sounds like Darwin was bored to death with the real world, so he ran off and invented his own fantasy world, and his fantasy world, as they say, became history.

Yes, traveling the world and noticing finches' beaks is much more fantastical than talking serpents and donkeys and whatnot.

Crazy man. Craaaaaaaazy...

Doesn't sound like this, at all.

You're not using the right filter.

Ah, the old same evidence, two different realities, schtick.

So would the double-slit experiment believers.

So would the double-slit experiment believers.

What's a double slit experiment believer?

 

[AV1611VET]

What's a double slit experiment believer?

Double-slit experiment

 

[CaliforniaSun]

Double-slit experiment

Yeah, I'm familiar with the double slit experiments. What's a double "slit experiment believer?"

Someone who is the opposite of a non-believer.

 

[Split Rock]

Someone who is the opposite of a non-believer.

I don't believe in double slits.

 

[AV1611VET]

I don't believe in double slits.

Well I certainly don't wear them!

 

[CaliforniaSun]

Someone who is the opposite of a non-believer.

Which are you?

 

[AV1611VET]

Which are you?

I'm a believer in this ... 'same evidence, two different realities, schtick.'

 

[CaliforniaSun]

I'm a believer in this ... 'same evidence, two different realities, schtick.'

Ah, so you believe in three slits. Got it!

Hey AV - since you brought it up in this thread...and you seem to either have an issue with wave-particle duality or not....let's ask a question that derives off of it.

Is Schrödinger's cat alive or dead?

He has a problem with science in general... it scares him.

His cat experiment is a reductio ad absurdum.

I wasn't aware reductio ad absurdum is science.

 

[mkatzwork]

His cat experiment is a reductio ad absurdum.

No, it's not. R.A.A. aims to disprove an assertion or statement by reducing it to it logical conclusion. It isn't a fallacy, you know...

This is a thought experiment, designed to illuminate an idea central to quantum mechanics, an idea well illustrated by the double-slit experiment.
