90 jbml thln: similarly, the randomness associated
WITH QUANTUM MECHANICS DOES NOT IMPLY A SCIENTIFIC STATEMENT THAT OUR LIVES ARE RANDOM, OR THAT HUMANS MAY SPONTANEOUSLY TUNNEL FROM ONE PART OF THE UNIVERSE TO ANOTHER.
SUCH PHENOMENA MAY INDEED BE POSSIBLE, BUT IT WILL PROBABLY BE SOME TIME BEFORE SCIENCE CAN APPROPRIATELY FORMULATE THESE QUESTIONS, LET ALONE ANSWER THEM.
IN THIS SENSE, IT IS ENTIRELY REASONABLE TO STATE THAT IN THE WORLD OF THE TALMUD, "A question asked in the 16th century is answered in the 11the," ASSERTING A KIND OF TEMPORALITY FAMILIAR TO US FROM THE MICROSCOPIC CAUSALITY OF ELEMENTARY PARTICLES, BUT THE STATEMENT STANDS OR FALLS AS AN OBSERVATION ABOUT THE TALMUD, NOT ON ANY PURPORTED SCIENTIFIC STATEMENT ABOUT CAUSALITY.
IN RESPONSE TO A RELATED QUESTION, I DO NOT APOLOGIZE FOR SCIENCE, NOR DO I SEE IT AS THE PRIME CULPRIT IN THE EXAGGERATION OF ITS IMPORTANCE.
SCIENCE UNDERSTANDS AND LIVES BY ITS OWN LIMITATIONS ~ IT SEEKS TO FIND REGULARITY IN A LIMITED DOMAIN OF OBSERVABLE PHENOMENA THAT ARE AMENABLE TO CONTROLLED AND REPEATABLE EXPERIMENTATION.
THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD TRANSLATES EXPERIMENTAL OBSERVATIONS INTO THEORY ~ EXPLICITLY REDUCTIONIST MODELS THAT REPLICATE AN ABSTRACTION OF THESE PHENOMENA AND CAN BE MANIPULATED, IN PLACE OF DIRECT EMPIRICAL OBSERAVTION, TO STUDY CERTAIN ESSENTIAL FEATURES OF THIS ABSTRACTION.
