Since all we see is light, how can anyone say light is perceived emotionally as love? I certainly don't love everything I see.

 

And the good/bad vibration crap has been around for a while.

Quantum woo is an attempt to piggy-back on the success and legitimacy of science by claiming quack ideas are rooted in accepted concepts in physics, combined with utter misunderstanding of these concepts and a sense of wonder at the amazing magic these misunderstandings would imply if true. A quick way to tell if a claim about quantum physics has scientific validity is to ask for the mathematics. If there isn't any, it's rubbish.

 

Proponents of quantum woo are affected by the interaction of neural-energy and their natural bozon field, which results in the creation of one moron and the decay of two neurons. The moron has a half-life of 42 years.

Energy is the ability to do work. There is no such thing as a purest form.

I'm trying to convince someone without insulting them.

 

But damn I laughed hard at that last paragraph.

 

They brought this up: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2015/05/150527103110.htm

 

Am I wrong in trying to explain that thoughts and perception are only given through action. And energy is needed for thought, not all thought is?

 

I began by referencing this : http://profmattstrassler.com/articles-and-posts/particle-physics-basics/mass-energy-matter-etc/matter-and-energy-a-false-dichotomy/

 

But that didn't convince them

Matter has mass, it takes up space. As iNow mentions, energy is just the ability to do work.

 

I wouldn't go with the thoughts and perceptions angle. This is just a case where they took a popsci view of energy and matter, and then stuck a bunch of made-up wishful thinking onto it, hoping it will lend legitimacy.

Information is not energy.
