Art Hobson decries the spread of pseudoscientific claims about quantum theory, but his solution is to "ban" the word particle, and teach only about fields that fill all space -- a concept which he claims gets rid of all the mystery. Yeah right!
Perhaps his confusion comes from having the mystic Casey Blood contribute to his paper!
And his argument with another mystic, Richard Conn Henry, is utterly pathetic. They are both off the deep end.
So how would I suggest educating people about quantum theory? I would suggest bringing back the values that educated people used to cherish, such as doubt, curiosity, and the willingness to say I don't know but maybe... and what do you think.
The world is suffering from a suppression of creatively moderate ideas. It doesn't seem to be PC anymore to say that quantum theory is empirically correct but logically incomplete. Instead it has to be the theory either of everything or of nothing. This is the kind of divided-we-fall environment that gets blighted by pseudoscience.
