User:Dougbutner/Relational principle of existence

The Douglas Relational Principle states the role of an observer on measurable reality. It has three parts.
 * 1) Measurable properties exist only in relationship to an observer.
 * 2) For an observer to observe, it must display its properties to that which it is observing.
 * 3) The measurable properties shown to an observer will be those that the act of observing causes the observed to display.

General Explanation
All forms of existence must involve two or more entities which observe eachother. Furthermore, the reality is only real (perceived, measured, interacted with) to those observers. Digging deeper, reality is not the interactions with observers that an entity could observe, it is only those that it does observe. This simply means that there cannot be an objective (one who sees but is not part) observer of a reality. Any observer must be part of the system, and interact with all observers forming their collective reality. This means that the reality formed by one observer is subject to what the rest of the observers display. Reality, therefore, is not finite or true outside of observation. Instead it is subject to the interpretation of perceived properties from one observer to another.

Quantum Physics
The Uncertainty principle states that certain pairs of physical properties, like position and momentum, cannot both be known to arbitrary precision. This is an example of the effect an observer has on another observer. When Heisenberg tried to observe a particle, he found that his act of observation affected his ability to measure. This shows the third part of the Relational Principle. The act of observation caused the particle to stop being a Wave function and display a finite property to the observing particle.
