That's the real crux, isn't it? What exactly shall we sacrifice? Causality mustn't be completely sacrificed if one adopts John Cramer's "Weak Causality" in lieu of "Strong Causality".Ilja said:But to give up something fundamental for preserving the effective symmetry group of a wave equation?
Strong Causality is defined as requiring that all causes precede effects, while Weak Causality allows for quantum causes to follow their effects. It is my opinion that this is the least offensive solution to the EPR paradox. Look at what is recovered - Objective Reality, Locality, Determinism (potentially), single history; other interpretations are not able to do this. Our Classical intuitions which QM has taught us to question or outright throw out the window can be recovered. This is attractive to me.
Unless you are implying "quantized time" (which I am not opposed to) I do not understand how a poison gas being triggered by an atomic decay process does not produce an infinite number of outcomes. Also, I do not believe that the Universe is infinite.Dmitry said:(but the number of states in QM is finite event function is continious so the numbe rof cats is very big but finite)
