What about that phenomenon where two photons are split from the same source, and if one is knocked into an "up" spin (whatever that is), the other will automatically have a "down" spin? It's hard for me to decipher what physicists say about it, but they seem to be saying (without actually coming out and saying it) that the locking of one photon into one spin will instantaneously communicate to the other to go into the other spin, even though they're racing from each other at the speed of light. It always has me confused whenever I read about it.

My theory: Space is an energy field that permits the existance of matter, which is energy. This could explain how atoms are affecting each other w/ up and down spin even as they are accelerating away from each other, and could explain how light has speed and no velocity.
