The universe and its abundance of life on the earth is indeed a "quantum paradox", for there are so many postulated views of how it all arose, if it is measureable, or is this just a "dream" ? For example, was Albert Einstein always right ? No.
In his General Theory of Relativity of 1915 (published in 1916, where space and time seems to be interlocked [or "married"], "curves the fabric of space" or space itself is bent around massive objects [spacetime curvature], and in which he had spent 10 years working on this theory), Albert Einstein assumed that the universe was stagnant, with all the stars just sitting there, like "a bump on a log"
It was not until his visit to the Mt Wilson Observatory in California in 1931 and discussing it with Edwin Hubble, whereby he was shown that the universe is bigger than once imagined and is in motion, expanding rapidly, that he realized what he called his "greatest cosmological blunder".
And then in December 1934, he felt that harnessing nuclear energy would be a "miracle" that was considered as "impossible", saying: "There is not the slightest indication that (nuclear energy) will ever be obtainable. It would mean that the atom would have to be shattered at will".(Note: Enrico Fermi had discovered earlier in 1934, that if you bombard uranium with neutrons (or fission), uranium splits into lighter elements, releasing powerful energy. However Einstein was still skeptical, until in 1939, his skepticism was overtaken by the ever increasing knowledge of fission, in which the United States government began the Manhattan Project in that year)
It is now understood that "general relativity remains an incomplete description of gravity", and how general relativity can be reconciled with quantum (or particle) physics. And this belief that the stars were stagnant or non-moving and that the earth was the center of the known universe actually was put forth by Greek philosopher Aristotle (384-322 B.C.E.).
The Greek astronomer Ptolemy (about 100 C.E. ? - 170 C.E. ?) explored the heavens with his eyes alone, tracking the planets across the night sky and was skilled as a mapmaker. But he believed, as Aristotle taught, that the earth was the center of everything. Astrophysicist Carl Sagan (1934-1996 C.E.) wrote of Ptolemy: “His Earth-centered universe held sway for 1,500 years, a reminder that intellectual capacity is no guarantee against being dead wrong.”
So, with all the different (and ever changing) views (or more accurately conjectures, speculations, theories) buzzing around, it is wise to put one's faith in them as "cast into stone" ? Consider what an ancient Israelite king named Solomon (reigned 1037-998 B.C.E.) wrote for our benefit: "The naive person believes every word, but the shrewd one ponders each step".(Prov 14:15 in the Bible)
Thus, who is the one that we can place our implicit trust in, that never fails to tell the truth and is an unfailing guide for us ? In the Bible, at Isaiah 48, it says: "This is what Jehovah (God's personal name) says, your Repurchaser, the Holy One of Israel: "I, Jehovah, am your God, the One teaching you to benefit yourself, the One guiding you in the way you should walk".(Isa 48:17)
And at Isaiah 42, it states: "This is what the true God, Jehovah, says, the Creator of the heavens and the Grand One who stretched them out, the One who spread out the earth and its produce, the One who gives breath to the people on it and spirit (or life force, like applying electricity to an appliance so that it comes to "life") to those who walk on it".(Isa 42:5)
Therefore, when it comes to matters regarding the future, our future, we can, without reservation and not be a "quantum paradox", turn to Jehovah God for guidance and see what he has in store for mankind.(see Isa 25:6-9; 33:24)
