I hasten to assure my readers that the mistakes of outstanding scientists listed below do not in the least diminish my respect for their outstanding talents and intuition!

WE ARE ALL JUST HUMAN BEINGS, and we can make mistakes, which we do often and willingly.

Albert Einstein:

His 1916 article “The Elementary Theory of Flight and waves on Water” is a set of complete absurdities and mistakes.

His Theory of Relativity, the Theory of light quanta-photons – is brilliant, although the Special Theory of Relativity in the form in which Einstein formulated it suffers from some incompleteness and needs fundamental corrections.

Niels Bohr:

The main mistake, in my opinion, is his excessive tendency to not so much “uncertainty of physical parameters” as to the UNCERTAINTY of the METHOD of THINKING ITSELF in relation to the microcosm.

His categorical denial of the idea of “hidden parameters” proposed by Einstein (which I consider to be absolutely correct) seems to me to be a basic error of Bohr’s approach to quantum phenomena.

At the same time, I consider his idea of “stationary orbits” and the general idea of the atomic structure to be the perfection of physical theory.

Henrik Anton Lorentz:

When his student Paul Ehrenfest sent him a copy of an article by two of his students, Goudsmith and Julenbeck, with the idea of electron spin, the rotation of an electron around its own axis, Lorentz immediately did the calculations and replied to Ehrenfest that “This is impossible,” because, in order to create such a magnetic moment, the electron must rotate at a speed on the “equator” EXCEEDING THE SPEED OF LIGHT!. This contradicts the already experimentally proven IMPOSSIBILITY for any material particles with a rest mass unequal to zero (According to the conclusions of the Special Theory of Relativity).

Lorentz mixed two concepts: In a purely quantum, NONCLASSICAL phenomenon, he introduced purely classical counting methods based on classical concepts.

Experiments have confirmed the idea of spin, which is “ridiculous” from Lorentz’s point of view. He just had to start from other ideas about microparticles.

 James Clerk Maxwell and Ludwig Boltzmann:

Their “Molecular Kinetic Theory” (MKT) is fundamentally wrong, but this error stems from its INCORRECT application to unsuitable objects: Molecules and atoms.

It is quite possible that it turns out to be completely correct when applied to nuclei and elementary particles, but not to such relatively large and complex systems as molecules and atoms.

Their epigones, instead of correcting the mistake of the two great physicists, added absurdity by BRAZENLY distorting the starting points of the Theory of Maxwell and Boltzmann: They replaced the definition of the founding fathers of the MCT on the VELOCITIES of MOLECULES AND ATOMS and their statistical alignment with time, by KINETIC ENERGY of particles and thereby “justified” incorrect application to molecules and atoms, possibly a valid theory that should be applied to other, smaller objects.

Louis de Broglie:

His idea of the wave-like behavior of micro-objects, such as molecules, atoms, and elementary particles, is completely erroneous, introducing some kind of “centaurs” into physics – either particles or waves at the same time. The so-called “Wave-particle dualism”, which, in my opinion, is a mistake based on a visual analogy: The similarity of the behavior of classical waves, described on the basis of the Huygens-Fresnel principle, and the “diffraction” of microparticles, while the cause of the latter is the purely QUANTUM INTERACTION of two quantum objects: Microparticles and atoms a material on which microparticles experience ONLY a deviation SIMILAR TO WAVE DIFFRACTION.

Max Born.

After a number of experimental data REFUTING the IDEA of “wave-particle dualism”, Born, one of the founding fathers of quantum mechanics, in an effort to save this obviously incorrect approach, came up with his “Born Approximation”, “justifying” the harmful idea:

Indeed, particles themselves DO NOT POSSESS wave properties, but their INTERACTION with the object causing their diffraction is wave-like! You see, PROBABILITY WAVES are DIFFRACTED on it!

The ravings of a drunk mare on a moonlit night!

There is NO PHYSICAL AGENT in nature that we call “PROBABILITY.” There are velocities, impulses, energy, fields, BUT THERE are NO PARTICLES, NO FIELDS, NO PHENOMENA called “PROBABILITY”

Probability is just OUR MENTAL ASSESSMENT of certain phenomena and processes in which we CANNOT ACCURATELY PREDICT the outcome of a particular process!

THERE IS NO PHYSICAL REALITY called “Probability”.

These are just OUR THOUGHTS, our mental assessment of a certain process, but due to ignorance of all the factors at play, we CANNOT accurately predict its outcome! Therefore, Max Born’s “Waves of probability” exist only in his “wave–like” thoughts, and not in physical reality.

The epigones of Clausius.

Clausius gave the definition of a certain empirical fact: Heat never passes “by itself” from a cold body to a hot one. This position later became known as the “Second Law of Thermodynamics.” But the epigones, out of their natural stupidity, wanted to “supplement and improve” this simple empiricism with something more complicated and puzzling. They came up with a word: Entropy, that is, disorder, something other than order, orderliness, and this Second Principle has been reformulated as follows:

“In a closed system, left to its own, entropy either remains constant or increases!”

It sounds SOLID and SCIENTIFIC-LIKE.

Only in their epigonous fever did the inventors forget that there is NO ORDER AND DISORDER IN NATURE!

This is AGAIN OUR UNDERSTANDING of certain phenomena, processes, and the structure of matter. Dead nature does not care at all whether the atoms have joined into some kind of ORDERED CRYSTAL LATTICE, or represent some kind of group of chaotically moving or arranged atoms. We call this state of matter amorphous. But THIS IS OUR MENTAL ASSESSMENT OF a certain state or process! NO MORE. This Order – Disorder are NOT A PHYSICAL, OBJECTIVELY EXISTING REALITY!

Lines of force of electric and magnetic fields.

Another idiotic idea that quickly turned from our fantasy into a “physical reality.” THERE ARE NO POWER LINES! This is OUR HUMAN WAY of imagining how to visualize the effect of a mysterious invisible and intangible real physical factor called a “FIELD.” We just figured out how to make the “FIELD” more visual and understandable for ourselves. Small particles of dielectric were scattered on the surface of a sheet of paper and they suddenly began to form a pattern when an electrostatically charged body was brought to them from below. Or powder from any ferromagnet, which also formed a pattern of lines under the influence of a magnetic field! But these are just our methods of VISUALIZING the action of the field, and not real lines of force, which are not even in sight, except in our imagination!

I’ll move on from the absurdities of physics to biology.

There is, in general, a worldwide obsession for thousands of years with one fixed idea called TELEOLOGY!

De, everything in the subcellular organism is subordinated to ONE GOAL: All cells work together for the benefit of the whole organism!

The illusion is understandable, just as it is clear and visible every day that the Sun, stars and the entire universe helpfully revolve around the center of the universe – the Earth! And those who do not believe, let them observe the sky for at least one day and immediately understand and believe that THIS is the ULTIMATE TRUTH.

After all, anyone knows that most living multicellular organisms develop FROM a SINGLE CELL. It is clear that this is why ALL THE CELLS OF the emerging multicellular creature MUST WORK ACCORDING TO THE SAME PROGRAM FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE WHOLE ORGANISM!

And this is exactly the opposite!

All cells of any organism are individualistic egocentrists who “care” only About THEIR OWN WELL–BEING and they don’t care about the whole organism, which they don’t know about and don’t want to know about!

THE CELL DUMP!

And why does it still exist and function more or less properly and consistently?

But because the cells cooperate with each other in a mutually beneficial way, they, the TERRY EGOISTS, BENEFIT from this interaction, for everyone gains something from this cooperation, which arose in the distant past purely by chance, but became entrenched precisely due to the fact that the living conditions for such mutually cooperating cells have IMPROVED! More food, more drink, more oxygen (if oxygen–breathing) – GRACE! But as soon as some parts start to work worse “for the benefit of others”, a deadly war of cells with each other for THEIR LIVES immediately begins! For their «piece of cake»!

There was a symbiosis and THERE is NONE.

“There is a national war going on

HOLY war!”

That’s what a multicellular organism is!

Unity is relative!

The fight is absolute!

Summary:

Where do all these ridiculous misconceptions come from?

Because of our human inability to think!

It only SEEMS to us that we are thinking!

But in fact, from childhood to death, we do not think, but stupidly and joyfully, LABELING, replace real honest and difficult thinking with its lightweight appearance, only superficially similar to thinking. A SURROGATE of thinking, adored by almost everyone, familiar and thoroughly cultivated!

This is the sad answer to the question “Why do we make such stupid mistakes, almost ALL of us?!”

And let’s continue to thoughtlessly plunge into the abyss of this self–deception, creating a “machine pseudo-intelligence” – it’s IRON, let it THINK INSTEAD OF US!

And you don’t need much:

Not to create all sorts of meaningless “Artificial Supposedly Intelligences”, but to learn for ourselves, to think for real, and not to entrust this last legacy of ours to thoughtless pieces of hardware!
