As to accounting for every possibility, well that is the big quantum mechanical question; however, to the Einsteins of the world, calculating every possibility is the easy part, the hard part is deciding which possibility will happen. Electrons move throughout our world seemingly at random, we can just about tell you where they'll be at given any given time, but never where any will be at every specific time. That'd be magic.Schwarzwaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16953126466905851084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6277984098153355193.post-88311078940372657122013-01-29T21:26:18.761-06:002013-01-29T21:26:18.761-06:00we all are undergoing Genetic Modification all the...we all are undergoing Genetic Modification all the time. Every time we are infected by a virus our genetic code is altered. every new human varies the human genome. trying to find a "perfect sequence" is a disaster waiting to happen. entropy naturally guides everything to many possibilities. how can we think we can account for every possibility? like in the movie Jurassic Park, "nature finds a way."
