There's just no contradiction. The deepening of knowledge doesnt't contradict prior observations. All hypotheses may and should be contradicted though.

- mellosouls 6y agoQuantum mechanics pretty much overturned our understanding of the world; it produced a qualitatively different world view to that of classical theories (including GR), more than just a deepening in that sense.
- loopz 6y agoDepends on who is understanding or not, if they reject it. However, evolving perspective is good as we see past assumptions, not facts, are always wrong to some extent. Not sure how QM changed who though. That everything is interconnected and complex, is not new logic at all. Maybe this brings artifacts across scales too. However we only observe effects. Period. Maybe what is needed is humility.
