Abstract

Interpretations of quantum physics are shown to presuppose the reality of consciousness. But if a minimal realism about the external world is true, then the consciousness presupposed by quantum reality cannot be only that of the scientific observer, cannot be only ‘local’ but must be ‘global’. Global consciousness is argued to have all and only the essential properties of God. Quantum reality depends on God’s consciousness and the physical world depends on quantum reality. Therefore, the physical world depends on God’s consciousness.

量子物理学与上帝的存在

对量子物理学的解释被证明预设了意识的现实性。但是，如果关于外部世界的最低限度现实主义是真的，那么量子现实所预设的意识就不可能仅仅是科学观察者的意识，就不可能仅仅是 "局部的"，而必须是 "整体的"。全局意识被认为具有上帝的所有且唯一的本质属性。量子现实依赖于上帝的意识，物理世界依赖于量子现实。因此，物理世界取决于上帝的意识。
