indeed it is hard for me and I think anyone for that matter to concieve or comprehend of something outside the box of this universe you and I live in.
Especially when you start thinking about those tiny little particals that make up atoms and other seemingly solid material in this world. Protons, neutrons and electrons may actually be wavelets of information are not particals at all. Could be the world is made up of totally ehtereal information. We might be tuned to sense the physical world because thats what we are a part of, anything else doesnt register.
Quote:
Inherent difficulties of the materialist theory of exisitence have appeared very clearly in the development of physics during the 20th century. This difficulty relates to the question whether the smallest units of matter such as atoms of which objects are composed are ordinary physicals objects, whether they exist in the same way as stones or flowers. Here quantum theory has created a complete change in the situation... The smallest units of matter are, in fact, not physical objects in the oridinary sense of the word; they are - in Plato's sense - Ideas.
