    What The Bleep Do We Know?

    So Quantum Physics is officially, the strangest and most enlightening thing ever.

    I suggest you all check out this movie, no matter what your personal beliefs might be.

    Science is doing stuff right now, that I never even imagined possible.

    Just do it.

    i dunno, i watched it and i didnt really like it. i;m incredibly interested in the subject matter, but to tell the truth i just didnt think it was a good movie.
    the coolest part imo was when they were talking about the water that was blessed by the monk.

      You should keep in mind that this film is not a documentary, but basically an infomertial for the Ramtha School of Enlightenment ( http://skepdic.com/channel.html ) in which all 3 directors are students. Personally I would have never used the word "science" to describe any of that ... stuff. Once you start looking at it all with a skeptical eye it falls apart.

        Seen it. It was a pseudo-intellectual circlejerk for the lowest common denominator of an audience. If you really want to learn about quantum physics, check out some books by Michio Kaku, http://www.mkaku.org, who writes pretty well. When I get back to my collection (out of town), I'll post some titles.

          I took everything with a grain of salt, but it drew me in to quantum physics.

          The whole water thing showing thought is atleast somewhat substantial.

          And something being in two places at once. Now that is spectacular

I am choosing moment by moment my experience. Heisenberg said atoms are not things, only tendencies." Okay, Amit, I challenge you to leap out of a 20-story building and consciously choose the experience of passing safely through the ground's tendencies.

                  I guess I'll attempt to get an objective view of quantum physics, by reading books.
