In the double-slit experiment where light is shone through two horizontal narrow slits (one on top of the other), the diffraction pattern on the wall looks like venetian blinds, i.e. multiple horizontal bars of light rather than just two horizontal lines, indicating that light is a wave. However, when scientists put sensors at the slits to record data, the resulting pattern on the wall becomes a collection of blotches. You may think that the presence of the sensors is somehow causing the blotching effect, but they are not. If you run two of these experiments where both experiments have sensors at the slits, but you erase the data from the sensors of one of the experiments as soon as it is collected (i.e. you never look at the data), then the diffraction patterns from both experiments become the normal venetian blind pattern again. The only plausible conclusion: INFORMATION IN THE PRESENT CAN CHANGE THE PAST. Yes, you read that correctly. And this is a replicable experiment of course.
Other mysteries of the quantum realm include: if you split a molecule in half, and spin the electrons of one half in the other direction, then the electrons of the other half will spin in the same direction, no matter how far apart the halves are. To our standard sensibilities, there must be a force that exists between the two halves that can act across infinite distance and have infinite speed, but this means that force would have to travel faster than the speed of light, which is not supposed to be possible. Either that or what is done to electrons in the presnt will change how they were in the past.
There are so many mysteries like this that indicate that human perception is so limited that we are perceiving space-time in the simplest linear fashion when in fact it is anything but. The implication of things in the present changing things in the past is this: there is a "window" as far as humans are concerned where "near past/present/near future" all exist simultaneously but most of us can only percieve just one: present. Given this, it means that in our human existence, our minds (or "souls" if you will) are navigating through a universe that does not move, and where all possibilities exist at once. The perception of movement of space-time is created by the decisions that we make in our "near past/present/near future" windows, and hence the direction that we move in a universe where all possibilities and outcomes exist at the same time is strictly up to us. You may think that a person's movement through this dimensional panorama can only be determined by outside forces (Freudian determinism) but that's not so because if our minds EXPECT something to happen, then this will change the past, which will take us on a new possibility vector through space-time. This means that if you condition yourself to expect good then your past will be changed so that you are on a different possibility vector, one that leads you to a different outcome than the dreary fate that you previously imagined yourself to inherit. This also means that reality is what you choose to perceive, and that what you think can determine and shape the reality around you.
In the realm of religion, this sheds some light on the often amazing anecdotal evidence about the power of prayer, and why some people seem to be more lucky than others. In philosophical terms, if all possibilities exist at once, then every soul in the universe in some possibility thread receives justice for wrongs committed against them. But as far as shaping one's own destiny goes, the most important factor is just one intangible thing: INFORMATION, which is what the only real thing that exists, your "soul", needs as it navigates through multiple dimesnions and realites.
That's why the internet is a technology that will change human existence forever.
