'Virtual particles are subatomic particles that form out of "nothing"'

Exactly how does a virtual particle form from nothing?

Exactly how does a C-60 molecule, 60 interconnected atoms, enter,
travel through, and exit multiple slits simultaneously without
releasing energy, requiring energy, or having a change in momentum?

Exactly how is a C-60 molecule able to enter one slit or multiple
slits depending upon detectors being placed at the exits to the slits,
or not, in the future (while the C-60 molecule is in the slits)?

Virtual particles do not exist and the C-60 molecule always enters and
exits a single slit.

Consider this.
[1] "Any probabilistic problem from traditional mathematics can be
restated in terms of existential indeterminacy and conservation."

From that statement you may regard the Schroedinger Wave Equation as
a
PDF which describes NOT MERELY the probability of finding an electron
in a given reqion of space, BUT ALSO it may be regarded as in fact
describing the very bending of space itself.

The difference between one and the other is NO DIFFERENT than
different frames of reference in the famous rocket thought experiment
form GR. It is no different.

Whether we use Schroedinger Wave Equation to describe location of
electrons, or bending of space, this is your choice to make. BOTH are
true.

'Bending of space' is meaningless when discussing nature.

What is being bent? And your answer will then be 'space'.

But we are not discussing three dimensional space, of course.

We are discussing the 'stuff of space'. The substance which occupies
three dimensional space.

All we are doing is apply the least amount of properties to the
substance of space.

And the least amount of properties we can apply to the substance of
space is that it is not at rest when displaced.

So, again, I as of those who can think beyond their spoon fed
indoctrination into the nonsense, is it more likely a C-60 molecule,
60 interconnected atoms, can enter, travel through, and exit multiple
slits simultaneously without releasing energy, requiring energy, or
having a change in momentum and is it more likely a C-60 molecule
enters one slit or multiple slit depending upon what will occur in the
future (detectors are placed, and, or, removed from the exits to the
slits while the C-60 molecule is in the slit(s)), or is it more likely
the C-60 molecule is creating a displacement wave in the substance of
space?

What do you suppose that it means when physicists say that LENGTH is
contracted when discussing the very well known thoery of Relativity ??
And did you notice that they say the same kinds of things regarding
TIME ??

This is what it means - when they say that "space is bent". It is
dimension which is being bent, twisted, expanded, contorted, etc.
Length and Time are Dimensions.

Yes, the word dimension is frequently used in mathematics, but it is
also an artifact of physical reality as well. When you say that
dimension is not physical - this is simply wrong. Take a ruler,
yardstick, tapemeasure, whatever, and go measure the length of
something. You have just made a Physical Observation of dimension.
Take a clock and let it run for 5 minutes, you have just made a
measurement, and a Physical Observation of the dimension of time.

In fact, if there were no such thing as time in physics, it is very
doubtful that mathematicians would have ever come up with the idea on
their own. If we lived in a world without time, mathematicians would
have never had any reason to incorporate it into models and probably
would have never even concieved of it in the first place. In this
regard, mathematics owes a debt of gratitude to physics for this thing
known as Time.

Try to imagine this - a universe with 3 dimensions of time and 1
dimension of length. It might be a pretty wierd place. Difficult to
even understand it. Difficult to imagine such a thing. And
mathematicians would have never discovered this thing known as time if
it werent occuring in nature.

Bending of space is meaningful in physics. It is more difficult in
mathematics because mathematicians are like a bunch of lawyers playing
a complicated game, and they typically do not indulge in the highly
"liberalized" models such as using "existential indeterminacy". If
they did - physics would be unified. But this has not happened yet.
Resorting to things such as "existential indeterminacy" is typically
regarded as breaking the rules, doing something which is not
mathematically valid. In my opinion, I believe that mathematics is not
the only tool available for making quantified abstract models of
things. Math is the best tool, but not the only tool. And conjectural
models are "equivalent" to mathematical models because they both
produce the same exact numerical results.

That is why Schrodinger Wave Equation may be regarded as mathematics,
or it can be restated in terms of "conjectural modelling" in which
case it describes bent space. These views are equivalent. These are
verydifferent views, but they are equivalent. No different than the
equivalence that we see in the famous elevator example from GR. It is
exactly the same thing. When you see this, then you will understand QM
as a layman should.
