The cat will be dead anyway, it is just a mesuer of time, and in the same time the cat was live and that can't be change also. Relativ but true.

It does have relevance to real life.

@kimcheeboi
Do you really want me to, or would you prefer to just accept my word on it? Some of my posts tend to get a tad ... long, and I have a feeling that such an explanation might very well do just that.

in short it is an attempt to break away from the normal thinking that our consciousness and our bodies are separate entities.. the living cat and the dead cat are indeed one cat, it has one outcome (two chances though, at least).. we are also constantly on the edge of life and death, and choices decide which direction we go.. but if the cats conciousness is called into question, you eventually ask, if there is only one actual outcome for the cat, is there only one consciousness to make that decision? if the answer is yes, you found spirituality through shroedingers cat paradox... for we are all part of one great big 'consciousness', as are all things, for if matter is energy slowed down, it is truly possible that if we could slow down that energy it would be made up of consciousness... if the answer is no, perhaps this does not correllate to your life..

and to respond to a previous post (before i explained) the spreading of knowledge does not always immediately reach the intended audience, however i have a hunch that most people that actually read about what i have posted and think and question it, it will stick better than knowing about a ducks quack.. and all knowledge is important, even if it isn't understood, it provokes thought... which is more important than knowing things.. knowledge is power, it is safe to assume that power is dangerous in the hands of man.. knowing things keeps you from learning contradictory things. what you know to be the truth could keep you from grasping an idea such as consciousness as the root of life.... but an idea, that can be much more powerful, it can grow with time, or completely change in an instant, it is alive.. knowledge is like ancient history, its good to know where you came from, but it doesn't really lead us into the future.......

It's more a case of "I think, therefore everything exists" as there is no existence outside our ability to perceive it. The world is not something "out there" to be objectively studied; it is a subjective experience.

There are more human footprints on the moon than there are at the bottom of the sea.
