Quantum Theory Experiment Said to Prove "Spooky" Interactions (economist.com)

universe520 writes: Albert Einstein was troubled by how two particles can communicate with each other even if they are on opposite sides of the galaxy. Today researchers in the Netherlands have closed the final two loopholes in how quantum entanglement works. The Times reports: "The new experiment, conducted by a group led by Ronald Hanson, a physicist at the Dutch university’s Kavli Institute of Nanoscience, and joined by scientists from Spain and England, is the strongest evidence yet to support the most fundamental claims of the theory of quantum mechanics about the existence of an odd world formed by a fabric of subatomic particles, where matter does not take form until it is observed and time runs backward as well as forward."

    No. They aren't "arguing against" the Universe having a creator. They simply have no evidence FOR one, so they dismiss the idea.

    If you have scientific evidence, then please present it. If not, then it's not science and science has nothing to say about it.
