Default Re: How do atheist\\scientists account for Thomas Aquinas?

[ QUOTE ]

Of course Aquinas would have had no reason to know this. Even Einstein resisted the notion but was eventually pretty close to rigorously proven wrong (Bell's Theorem? plus of course mountains of experimental evidence).

Bell's Theorem says that if you're going to have a hidden variable theory - meaning a theory of quantum mechanics that asserts that measurements are deterministic and represent averages or functions of "hidden variables" that are at least thus far experimentally inaccessible - it requires nonlocality.
