How the uncertainty principle universe itself works has made your ability to measure it precisely, ineffective. 

It's in the cards.

Stop fucking. "uncertainty principle" is how
physicists work, the universe has nothing to do it.

The uncertainty principle is about the limitations 
of scientific measurement and why they
do not ever go accurate.

The uncertainty principle (the I Don't Know Principle) is not
about the  limitations of measurements, it' about the
limitations of intelligence.

It begins with certaintly...but someone, somewhere moved the dial knob from certaintly to uncertainty.

So, when you read it..it reads 'uncertaintly'.

That is where the control knob is set at, 'uncertaintly'.

An accurate moron is an oxymoron.

That's what people thought at first but it goes deeper. Look up
e.g. "quantum eraser".

What is your argument jan? If you believe in that
you should show why. There is no proof of that
theory. If you believe its proven then why?

So there is nothing that we are merely "measuring inaccurately".
It goes deeper than that.
