Welcome to PragerU — the Blog That Thinks It’s a University (Part 1)
CORRECTIONS:
1) Dennis Prager is not a Christian, he is a Jew
2) The Japanese deity is Amaterasu, not Amataseru.
3) I shouldn’t have called the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle “part of” the Copenhagen Interpretation. Rather, the Copenhagen Interpretation is based on the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle.SOURCES:

The research on quantum physics is now nearly 10 years old, so it has passed from journals into textbooks. I’ll spell these out so you can google them. There’s been a lot of updated research which you’ll find along the way, but so far no breakthrough that cures our current ignorance of the things I said “we don’t yet know” in the video:Schrodinger’s Cat experiment
Double slit experiment (or Young’s slits)
Cosmic inflation theoryTo physicists who have written posts saying “It’s more complicated than that” — yes it is. Much more complicated. That’s why it takes three years to get a physics degree, and longer still to go on and do research into quantum physics. That’s why I have tried to keep things very simple.
So if the nature of basic particles and the probability of their position has to be explained in a three-volume textbook then an 18-minute video rebutting a religious proposition is not going to explain it all or even a good part of it.
And if you don’t like the multiverse hypothesis, that’s fine, it’s just a hypothesis. Go back and count the number of times I say in the video: “We just don’t know yet.”
Thanks for your understanding.
