Quantum Reality describes an oxymoron, only Classical Physical Descriptions are about reality.

Context

  • The first recorded thoughts on Quantum Reality are from Democritus writing about 400 BC and reported to us by Aristotle and Diogenes who has written that "his principal doctrines were these. That atoms and the vacuum were the beginning of the universe; and that everything else existed only in opinion.[1]
  • Aristotle himself was the source of all wisdom for many centuries. The space defined by Aristotle. the enumeration of what surrounds each thing is called "relative apparent and common". It is absurd to talk about empty space because space is just the spacial ordering of things. If there are no things, there is no space. He would never say a glass is empty, it is full of air.
  • Newton called his space "absolute, true and mathematical.[2]
