Discovering a new state is a feat in itself – but discovering five new states all at once is exceptional. Especially since there’s such an overwhelming level of statistical significance – i.e. this isn’t just a fluke.

Just makes your head explode.

wow

I found two things interesting with this article. First, ghosts can't or don't exist, or at least that can be detected with the LHC and still fit within our current model of quantum physics. What will everyone do when the scientists do more investigating and eventually figure out with absolute surety that once your body is dead, you're gone. There's no possibility of ghosts, no afterlife, no God, no heaven, absolutely nothing. Will people still deny it?

If we want some sort of pattern that carries information about our living cells to persist then we must specify precisely what medium carries that pattern and how it interacts with the matter particles out of which our bodies are made. We must, in other words, invent an extension to the Standard Model of Particle Physics that has escaped detection at the Large Hadron Collider. That’s almost inconceivable at the energy scales typical of the particle interactions in our bodies.

But in yet another article, they also think that they may be able to prove the existence of higher dimensions. That's really cool. But then let's say that once they find those higher dimensions and our current model of physics gets turned on it's ear, perhaps they'll then find evidence of those impossible ghosts, or even the afterlife? I'm not a physicist, so I can't make a truly informed comment here, but all this is absolutely mind bending and yet, kind of disheartening if you believe in an afterlife once your body is dead.

The paranormal doesn’t obey the normal rules of physics, so how can you prove or disprove its existence, using science?

Not saying I believe…just applying a little logic.

When science can explain the true nature of existence...I'm all ears.

You need to read up on Brane multiverses before thinking religion may be dead because of the LHC's discoveries.

Oh, I don't think religion is dead, nor do I think an afterlife is scientifically proven to be non-existent either. Scientists haven't even scratched the surface in our understanding of the universe and the way it works yet. They just need to not be so positive when they state things as "fact" because of their new "discoveries". In reality, it's a constantly evolving process of learning.

Quantum entanglement...

Someone almost has to smoke a little maryjane just to get their minds wrapped around that one.
