If Quantum Mechanics is the fundamental base for Matter…
Then obviously the existence of all matter … and the existence of the Universe is held in check… by Quantum Mechanics.
Does an atom have the capacity for thought?
What about a Quark?
What is the Origin of Thought?

]]>Second: If Quantum mechanics makes you think, then it means your education is working. If your mind is closed to thinking because you already know the answer then your education is worthless. I can’t see how calling yourself a freethinker makes any sense unless you and everyone around you is also free to think.
James’ comment regarding what constitutes intelligence is not that far fetched. There is something to be said for the difference between a human being and a neighbouring atom. Observations by the former “count” when observations by the latter do not. Obviously the intelligent observer does not need to be outside of the universe as you pointed out, but it does still need to be intelligent.
