Good point. I guess common sense doesn't work. I do know the very basics of the theory and it doesn't seem very good. I would point out that a lot of people thought the plum pudding model was right, but later discoved it to be false. Also I am not alone in my view. Einstein himself didn't like it. I should have used different wording but thanks for the corrections anyway.

there is a saying: every theory fits until a better one comes along.
Sure there will be a time, when a better theory comes along, but in the meantime its the best there is. It explains a lot (and leaves a lot in the gray), its elegant (in its own way), and for a very komplex matter quite simple.

Yea I know Einstein said: God doesn't play dice. But he said a lot of things that were false al well, so thats not an argument.
