Was Einstein right to doubt quantum mechanics?



Answers:
Einstein didn't doubt quantum mechanics. His photoelectric experiment that he won the Nobel for was a very important part of the development of the field. He just doubted the random aspects that people were using to make sense of it.
And, it's always good for people to doubt things. Trying to prove that something is wrong is as important as trying to prove it's right. You need to work both sides of any arguement to make sure you're covering as many possibilities as you can.
i believe so
No, he was well thick innit
Of course he was , anybody will tell you, you can't trust a mechanic
Absolutely
All scientists should doubt all theories, otherwise we would all believe that the Sun revolved around our obviously fllat Earth.
Yes, and car mechanics too,
Yes it is the scientists vocation to question the current theories.
The history of science shows that all theories will eventually be superceded by newer and better ones as our understanding increases. At the current point in time only one being has all the answers.. Please bow politely as you vote this best answer.

Yes, because his opposition made QM stronger because the theory had to be defended. Long term it was the wrong choice because th evidence was so great in it's favour - but Albert still didn't accept it he hung on to his disbelief and wasted the last few years of his life trying to prove QM wrong when he could of dome more important things.
yes and any theory that leaves out the (point of relativity).
