Therefore, effective decision-making requires anticipating and mitigating potential negative consequences before acting. * “For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.” B. What do modern physics (quantum theory) and creationism/religion have in common? Answer. Both use probability theory in an essential way to tell and then prove their story, one through the famous wave equation and the other through the unlikelihood of evolutionary events. While the physicists talk about wave-particle duality, theologists talk about a mind-spirit duality. Physicists talk about particle entanglement, while deists talk about kindred spirits. In the realm of spiritual connections, a concept often consider...
