But isn't saying there are no limits also a limitation? Therefore the best course of action is to limit our unlimitedness, would it not?

Haha that was a great explanation.

We've developed a computer that's available on the market now that uses quantum processing. We understand quantum physics relatively well. Your assumptions are all retarded. If anyone says he can think about quantum physics without getting giddy, that only shows he doesn't understand the first thing about it- Niels Bohr Niels Bohr died in 1962. It's been half a century since then. Stop quoting other people to make yourself look smart.
Also, wasn't that Feynmann?
BTW, there's no duality between quantum/non quantum. It's just that our maths isn't good enough yet to simulate relativity stuff with quantum mechanics yet. Stuff doesn't magically decide to not be quantum once enough of them gather together, classical mechanics are a result of probability theory founded on quantum.

I have another question, what is empathy? Is it a universal trait?

If our brain were so simple we could understand it, we would be so simple we couldn´t.

I have a question, is the original source of information relevant? When I first saw that I assumed it was your original statement, and it in fact is. You are using it in a new environment and putting it into the world for others to learn from and putting your own unique perspective/influence in the way you communicate it, thank you.

Or, string theory. To be viable it must predict absolutely everything quantum mechanics does right now. If it cannot then it should be discarded.

I feel like you really get what I'm saying, thanks for speaking your mind. Everyone is always in the search of a unifying theory, is searching for it itself limiting the search?

I read the first bit about matter being equal and the part of me that enjoys physics was disappointed.
So called 'limits' are absolutely necessary to have rational thought and discussion. Everything, over time, dissolves into disorder. Thoughts are no exception to this. Words, definitions of words, etc. are used to define and organize thought that would otherwise be disordered and useless to progress. Sure, sometimes thinking of random crap and digging deeper and deeper into, constantly asking "why?" to each thought over and over, can be somewhat enjoyable, but it's mostly useless. I've never taken hallucinogenic drugs, ever, but I would imagine the sensation one would get from using such substances is similar to "free flowing limitless thought."

All humans, around the world, have been shown to have empathy. Empathy, as in the ability to mirror the perceived emotional state of someone, or in some cases, something else. Sociopaths and young children do not exhibit empathy. Some animals, elephants for one, have shown to exhibit empathy as well.

You do realize scientists are trying to reconcile quantum so that it works with relativity right? Because at the moment we do not have a fully developed theory of quantum gravity that is as accurate as relativity. I think you are ignoring the possibility that they could both be partially wrong.

Out of the two, General Relativity is more likely to be incorrect. Measurements supporting quantum mechanics are more precise and easier to make than Relativity. But you're completely right that either could be wrong or at most, both could be.

I am aware, I am just annoyed by people who worship quantum like its something divine and infallible, and anything that we cannot currently get to fit in with it must be wrong.

Great post, you helped me alot with this one. I am going to describe my current perception of reality now, I do that, as you probably see by reading the thread, rather haphazardly, why do I do it? I have a rational explanation for everything, why, its because I'm being as honest, genuine, and as real I can with myself, I am improvising, not thinking about what to say but simply saying what I feel. "Fuck the world" many people say they live this way but really they are being limited. Now I'm going to randomly name off people who I perceive as genuine, you will know who some of them, but no all, why? Because no one has experienced what I personally have experianced. I guess I'll try to use some alot of you may be familar as aswell, cough no limits cough. Here goes, Incontrol, 2gd, jp, sase, nani, idra, juan cole, noam chomsky, normin finkelstein, amy goodman, JOHN ZORN. I just ask everyone to improvise I learned how from John Zorn.
