physics were fully thought out it would be extremely difficult to reconcile them with the
classical materialistic philosophies of nature.
If we try to Imagine that there must be something solid beneath the process, then this is because we are still being tricked by the assumptions of common sense and
classical physics upon which materialism rests.

physics students, you should be able to teach motion at a lower level,» Schwarz says.
If, after multiple measurements with this experimental setup, scientists found that the measurements of the particles were correlated more than predicted by the laws of
classical physics, Kaiser says, then the universe as we see it must be based instead on quantum mechanics.
In 1964, physicist John Bell took on this seeming disparity between
classical physics and quantum mechanics, stating that
if the universe is based on
classical physics, the measurement of one entangled particle should not affect the measurement of the other — a theory, known as locality, in which there is a limit to how correlated two particles can be.

If I may use an analogy from your expertise, it's as if, in an engineering issue governed by classical physics — say the construction of a bridge between Vancouver and Victoria — you claimed, during a lecture on eng» g principles, that it could be readily and cheaply done because of some principle that you've recently discovered, through your own investigations, which happens to be contrary to one of Newton's law'
