The standard interpretation of quantum mechanics…
- Is non-deterministic (stochastic).
(100%, 2 Votes) - Rejects Einstein’s claim that we can understand the universe once we discover its true structure.
(50%, 1 Votes) - Needs to be replaced by a more useful interpretation like Bohm’s interpretation or the one offered by qst.
(50%, 1 Votes) - Ultimately denies the main goal of science — explanation by deductive or reductive methods.
(50%, 1 Votes) - Suggests that cats can be alive and dead simultaneously.
(50%, 1 Votes) - Has very little, if any, metaphysical clarity. By comparison, deterministic interpretations of quantum mechanics offer very valuable metaphysical clarity.
(50%, 1 Votes) - Lends itself to statistical descriptions of the world but not an explanation of the world.
(50%, 1 Votes) - Is the only interpretation we have.
