SPECULATIVE METAPHYSICS AND NEW AGE RELIGION:

Metaphysics is a branch of science that is not easily defined. It is concerned with explaining the fundamental nature of being and the world. The word derives from the Greek words Meta (meaning “beyond”) and physika (meaning “physical”), “physical” referring to those works on matter by Aristotle in antiquity. The prefix Meta- (“beyond”) was attached to the chapters in Aristotle’s work that followed after the chapters on “physics,” in posthumously edited collections. Aristotle himself did not call these works Metaphysics. Aristotle called some of the subjects treated there “first philosophy.” The metaphysician also attempts to clarify the notions by which people understand the world. Before the development of modern science, scientific questions were addressed as a part of metaphysics known as natural science”; the term “science” itself meant “knowledge. The famous double slit experiment used a set of single electrons fired one after the other through two slits.

The result was an interference pattern which is characteristic of a wave and not a particle. This implied that each single electron would go through both slits; through no slits; through just the left slit and through just the right all at the same time! Quantum field theory explains this by stating that matter is neither a wave nor a particle. It is something more abstract and could be considered as a simultaneous co-existence of all possibilities. This leads to the idea of superposition i.e. all possibilities
