If the table stops existing after everyone leaves the room, the how do you explain that, when we come back in 10 years, the table is covered in dust?

Re: Solid Walls
The wall only feels solid when observed.
When not observed, the particles of the wall will turn into waves, and the wall will be gone.
That's what's happening.
But that's not what's happening. We know this because if we leave a wall unobserved for an extended period of time, the wall paper will still fall off of it. That's because it is still sitting there existing even when we are not observing it.
Just like a table that is unobserved will sit there and gather dust. That couldn't happen if it stopped existing.

Re: Solid Walls
Isn't the mistake he's making, trying to extrapolate quantum behaviour into the day to day, classical, macro world ?
That's exactly the mistake he is making. That physicist he quoted has woo'd him.
Its obvious that he starts with his faith and then goes and looks for sciencey sounding stuff that he can use to prop up his faith. It's sad.

You think, therefore you are. What doesn't exist is your physical body,
So when I fall asleep, my body stops existing. How then, do I suddenly wake up and find that my blanket has been kicked onto the floor?
