“The new physics presents prima facie evidence that our human thoughts are linked to nature by nonlocal connections: what a person chooses to do in one region seems immediately to effect what is true elsewhere in the universe. This nonlocal aspect can be understood by conceiving the universe to be not a collection of tiny bits of matter, but rather a growing compendium of ‘bits of information. . . .’
And,
I believe that most quantum physicists will also agree that our
conscious thoughts ought eventually to be understood within science and
that when properly understood, our thoughts will be seen to DO
something, they will be efficacious.”
-- Henry P. Stapp, a leading theorist in quantum physics at University of California, Berkeley
