I went over to the link before writing the message above. I have seen this nonsense in so many other places. Late night radio is filled with people who claim this sort of silliness. I took more than one quantum mechanics course as an undergraduate and graduate student in physics. There is nothing spiritual there, there is nothing mysterious. It is hardcore science and mathematics, pure and simple.

Perhaps you are talking about the popular String Theory. String theory is not science either! You can not yet apply the scientific method to it. Yeah, lots of brilliant physicists are working on it but that in itself does not create science. String theory is where you get your 11 space dimensions, "sheets" of existence, parallel universes, etc. But that is all conjecture and wishful thinking. Until you can apply the scientific method, it is just philosophy.

Yeah, I get overheated when people start misusing science. But I truly believe that it is important for everyone to understand what science really is.
