I’m going to reiterate my original claim because much of your comment misses the point. In the comment above I argued that quantum theory has interesting philosophical implications.

You didn't read my original comment, then, since the whole point in my reply was to demonstrate that QM does not change the situation at all when it comes to the metaphysics, i.e. it does not have philosophical implications which classical mechanics did not have.

So when you assert materialism this is intellectual honesty, but when someone argues for an anti-materalist stance, based on observable evidence as strange as quantum entanglement (which you are quick to explain away) this is just personal metaphysics?

I don't know if your reading comprehension really is that poor or you are just intentionally misinterpreting what I stated.

No, I did not claim that materialism is being "intellectually honest" here, I claimed that the ones being intellectually honest are the ones who do not pretend like quantum mechanics supports their metaphysics, which includes materialists, at least not any more than classical physics did.

Occam’s razor doesn’t allow us to flippantly dismiss positions we deem unintuitive.

Sure, but Sagan's razor does, if you present your mystical claims without a shred of evidence.

Again, you’re familiar with the physics side but are incapable of considering alternate philosophical points of view.

You are incapable of being intellectually honest and want to desperately pretend that quantum physics proves idealism. I at least have the intellectual honesty to not pretend quantum mechanics is relevant to such questions of metaphysics.
