I asked the Internet…

What are the physical mechanisms that cause the three-photon annihilation of an electron and a positron?

Here is the answer:

“The three-photon annihilation of an electron and a positron is caused by the need to observe the law of conservation of charge parity (C-parity) in quantum electrodynamics, when the spins of colliding particles are directed in one direction.”

A charm, not a physical explanation! It turns out that photons, electrons, and positrons ARE REQUIRED TO KNOW and STRICTLY FOLLOW OUR laws and regulations. That is, instead of explaining some physical mechanisms that determine the features of three-photon annihilation, we are given a kind of religious teleology: Particles interact in such a way that our idea of “C-parity” is respected!!!

If it is written in the Quran that the Earth is flat, then it MUST BE FLAT.

Otherwise, the sanctity of the Quran will be violated!!!

Since it is written in the Holy Scriptures that the Earth is motionless and is the Center of the World, it means that the Sun, planets, stars, galaxies and the entire universe MUST obligingly and obsequiously revolve around this Center of the World!

Otherwise, the justice of the Holy Scriptures will be violated!!!

Our GUESS, right or wrong, about certain laws of nature CANNOT BE the BASIS for the “behavior” of inanimate objects! They “DON’T KNOW” about it! Nature DOES NOT KNOW OUR LAWS! There are certain physical forces at work in nature, and they alone determine the nature of the interaction of bodies and particles!

This is not news, but a primitive experience with a chain of colliding balls suspended on strings is ALSO “explained” in THIS WAY! “So that the laws of conservation of momentum and energy may be observed together!”

“I only know two things that have no boundaries: the universe and human stupidity!

However, I’m not quite sure about the first one.”
