FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE OF DESTINY
July 7, 2010, Mount Laurel, NJ: A ten-year long experiment conducted by Burlington County College professor, Manuel Morales, provides evidence of the fact that events are predetermined. The choice-chance dichotomy applied in this experiment has revealed not only the existence of predetermined events (i.e., destiny), but the nature of events themselves. When pairing choice events with mutually exclusive events of chance, Morales has discovered that direct choice events can only generate an outcome of certainty, and indirect choice events can only generate a probable outcome, even if the outcome turns out to be the same for both types of choices. By using mathematics to evaluate the empirical evidence obtained in the Tempt Destiny experiment, it became self-evident that the complementary events of choice and chance are predetermined to be either certain or probable, although not at the same time.
Example: In the sport of basketball, a player either makes a direct choice of throwing the basketball directly into the net, or choose to bounce the basketball off the backboard or rim (choice) with the chance that the ball will ricochet (chance) into the net (choice) in order to score points (chance) = Indirect Choice. Obviously both choices can accomplish the same results of scoring points, however only a direct shot into the net can be considered as certain, whereas, an indirect shot off the backboard or rim can only be considered as probable. The choice-chance dichotomy clearly shows that the outcome of the NY Giants billboards (direct choice) were certain and that the outcome of the Saints billboard was probable (indirect choice) even though the outcomes were the same, the choices were not. Choice dictates the certainty or probability of the outcome. Chance reveals the results of the choice made.
"Ten years ago, I had no idea of what I was getting myself into. I just needed to know if destiny was for real or if everything is just a matter of chance," said Morales. "I confess, the results were not what I expected."
Upon further research for studies that have obtained similar characteristic behaviors, Morales uncovered a parallel discovery by renowned physicist Niels Bohr. In 1927 Bohr, arguably the father of modern science in the field known as quantum mechanics, presented the Principle of Complementarity (PC). PC states that elementary particles, the stuff that atoms are made of, are observed to have both particle (direct choice behavior) and wave-like behaviors (indirect choice behavior) and that only one behavior can be observed at a time. This fundamental principal has withstood over eighty years of scientific scrutiny and has never been compromised. However, the problem with PC is that the probabilistic nature of elementary particles conflicts with the deterministic description of nature as defined by classical physics and beliefs of religious doctrines... until now. What has been revealed in this study is that both schools of thought are correct dependent upon the choice/observation being made. This means that nature is both certain and probable, not exclusively one or the other as debated since the dawn of man.
"As it turns out, the characteristic behavior of particle-wave duality found in quantum mechanics and the choice-chance dichotomy used in the Tempt Destiny experiment, are the same. It appears that the way nature behaves in the quantum world is no different to how nature behaves in the world around us. After all, events are, in essence, moments of energy. So it stands to reason, that the energy which exists in the world of the very small should also extend to the world of the very large, because both worlds are from the same energy. In essence, we live in a finite world of choice because we also live in an infinite world of chance."
The Tempt Destiny experiment's scientific method and findings are currently being edited for publication in an international journal devoted to the conceptual bases and fundamental theories of modern physics.
