I have had this double-slit experiment discussion with other materialists before and I'm sure it's not going to end in agreement this time either.Exactly so. What I mean is that in the double slit experiment it is the electron wave function interacting with an atom in the detector screen that causes detection at one spot rather than another. It is not because a conscious observer is watching it.
Let me ask you this. Why do you think the double-slit experiment results are considered counter-intuitive by the great minds involved in this? Are you going to say they just don't see the obvious?
