Why "Hidden Variable" implies possible non-locality

[Kriminal99]

In epistemology, some people learned that inductive reasoning can always fail, and all human reason is based on induction (not mathematical induction).

 

In statistics, we recognize that we must sample from the population we are trying to make a prediction for, randomly sampling when we are not sampling the whole population.

 

In math and physics, understanding of this seems to have flown out the window. When Einstein's theories got out, people claimed it dispoved Newton.

 

Of course it didn't, the assumptions of those arguments were not sampled at such high speeds. We had no reason to believe those assumptions held at those speeds.

 

A hidden variable, by it's very definition, exists in some realm (defined by size or any other trait that can differ signifigantly from us) that we have no experience of. Thus, all of the assumptions used in the argument that objects must obey the light speed barrier have at best a neutral chance of being correct.

 

Thus it is absurd to assume that cause and effect is broken from this and that the world is not deterministic, as quantum randomness could then be caused by future events causing past ones in the weak sense that would be the case if a blind person heard a can being hit with a bullet before hearing a gunshot.
