Quantum Entanglement & \"Worldlines\"
If Quantum Theory and the concept of Quantum Entanglement are true, then doesn't this say something about how one "worldline" can and/or does interact/impact with some other "worldline"?
In fact, if QE applies to any of two subatomic particle that can be separated by any distance in space, is it not possible that this same QE principle could very well be in effect at our macroscopic level of planets, stars, and galaxies?
Could we, on this earth, be quantumly-entangled to ONE other earth, as a necessary condition for us to be materially manifested such that we can sense and observe?
And if you take this kind of thinking to its logical ends, this could spell a whole heap of trouble for the idea of "infinite worldlines" such as our hoax-boy John Titor used in his story.
What is even more interesting (or perhaps alarming) to think about is the fact that what happens to us on this world may not be TOTALLY a result of things going on in our local Space. Our fate may very well be dependent upon decisions made elsewhere.... in a quantumly-entangled world. For all we know, events occurring in our world that may lead towards the "End of Ordinary Time" could have been caused by observations, decisions, and actions on some distant world (in addition to observations, decision, and actions in our own world).
The potential impact of an isolated world finally coming to learn that they are quantumly-entangled with another isolated world could lead to a wholesale change in how we view perception, free will, choices, cognition, and the FUTURE we wish to create for ourselves.
