  This is only a proposed theory, it’s very far from accepted fact.

  Which is why I said hypothetically…

  Although up until a year ago the very idea that quantum entanglement could happen in the brain was treated as a joke for like 30 years and that’s why the larger theory was instantly dismissed…

  Which is why I added the “technically” as well.

  If we’re being technical even gravity is just a theory. But it’s not like being deny the existence of gravity…

    I think you may have misused the word “hypothetically” then.

    I was taught Orch OR theory at university about 17 years ago.

    that’s why the larger theory was instantly dismissed

    Instantly dismissed by who? It’s a new theory, there will always be detractors and critics of new theories. That’s very different from being “instantly dismissed”.

      I 100% did

      I was taught Orch OR theory at university about 17 years ago

      Then you were also taught that there was no way the brain could maintain sustained quantum entanglement

      It’s a new theory

      I mean, frame of reference…

      You said you learned it 17 years ago, that’s not very “new”.

      But compared to any other science, all of psychology is incredibly “new”.

      I’m multitasking bro, this ain’t that deep

        No. I’ve no idea what could have possibly brought you to that conclusion.

        Please don’t try to tell me what brought you to that conclusion while multitasking. For that matter, please don’t try to tell me at all.
