and it was a "What if question" where all of the premises are true. |
Then it falls in the same category as questions like "What if 1=2?" |

Now im sure you have a doctorate in particle physics, but I wouldnt say that a higher dimensional entity would necessarily contradict the existence of a lower one. Unless you understand the other dimensions a lot more than I do?????? |

a hypothetical with contradictory premises contradicts itself, necessitating no argument. |

| and in any case it was a food for thought question because not a single person here understands quantum mechanics. |

Explain how its contradictory. Because it sounds like you dont know what youre talking about. |

iirc, the heisenberg uncertainty principle states that a quantum particle's velocity and position can not be accurately measured, measuring one to absolute accuracy makes it impossible to measure the other, leading to one of the three options i suggested. |

the heisenberg uncertainty principle states A is true
your hypothetical tells of a god who can invalidate A |

"A being that can predict everything" + "particles whose behavior cannot be predicted."
Does not compute. It's like the old one about God creating a rock too heavy for him to lift. :o |

Thats like saying that photosynthesis might use quantum particle effects to convert sunlight so one of these three options can be assume from that:
Earth is actually a microwave
God wants plants to love light
Einstein was an idiot.
Unless you explain the connection between Heisenbergs theory and the conclusions you reach, I see no reason to believe any of them are valid claims. |

i said all present and all observing. I didnt say able to see the future @@ |
