Default MULTIREALISTS IN EINSTEINIANA

In Einsteiniana's schizophrenic world signals regularly come from the
future and shape believers' minds. As a result, believers give money
to Paul Davies:

"The universe has a destiny - and this set fate could be reaching
backwards in time and combining with influences from the past to shape
the present. (...) Cosmologist Paul Davies, at Arizona State
University in Tempe, is embarking on a project to investigate the
future's reach into the present, with the help of a $70,000 grant from
the Foundational Questions Institute. (...) "It's a very, very
profound idea," says Davies. Aharonov's take on quantum mechanics can
explain all the usual results that the conventional interpretations
can, but with the added bonus that it also explains away nature's
apparent indeterminism. What's more, a theory in which the future can
influence the past may have huge - and much needed - repercussions for
our understanding of the universe, says Davies."

In 2003 Paul Davies believed for a while that toppling Divine Albert's
Divine Theory would bring even more money but quickly realized his
mistake:

Paul Davies 2003: "Was Einstein wrong? Einstein's famous equation
E=mc2 is the only scientific formula known to just about everyone. The
"c" here stands for the speed of light. It is one of the most
fundamental of the basic constants of physics. Or is it? In recent
years a few maverick scientists have claimed that the speed of light
might not be constant at all. Shock, horror! Does this mean the next
Great Revolution in Science is just around the corner?"
