I suggest you learn a little bit more about the observer effect and QM in general. QM doesn't and never has said that an observer is required for something to exist. That statement is a misunderstanding of what the observer effect is. Sure, it sounds all cool and stuff, but the fact is the universe doesn't need anything to observe it in order for it to exist.
Take a rock or mountain for example, way out in some uninhabited part of our planet. No one is observing it, yet it still exist despite that. Or galaxies billions of light years away for that matter.

Without an observer that experiences time the remote mountain is irrelevant because it is only a mountain for a given time, before it was a mountain it was a tectonic plate that eventually crumpled into a mountain. Therefore, to call it a mountain or galaxy requires the experience of time
Oh for the love of gawd. Does anyone besides me sense a trend here on hypography? Here's a new title for the site, hypography, where common sense is the enemy.

Jim Colyer,
If you are looking for unbiased answers, this is not the right website. If you want to read a book that is minutely biased and explains both points of view: Creation and Evolution, I have one in mind.
The book is titled Exploring Creation with General Science by Dr. Jay. L. Wile. The author admits that his book is somewhat biased, but it still gives you the choice to believe in either theory.
The book is a textbook, but if you want simple answers, this is it.

That's not science, friend. That's intelligent design, a christian book for home schooling. I encourage you two watch this special on NOVA about the attempts to introduce ID into the classroom in Dover, PA.
You can view it online, for free, and it's worth your time. It's split into sections so you don't have to watch it all at once if your schedule won't permit:

Actually it is science(you did get the homeschool book part right though), but it shows both views and doesn't force either view on you. I will try to look at those videos
If you want me to be honest, I don't really have a definition for science... Wait a minute! Dictionary here I come! No I'm just kidding I don't have one.
Astronomical instruments needed to answer crucial questions, such as the search for Earth-like planets or the way the Universe expands, have come a step closer with the first demonstration at the telescope of a new calibration system for precise spectrographs. The method uses a Nobel Prize-winning technology called a 'laser frequency comb', and is published in this week's issue of Science. Read » | 0 comments
Stanford computer scientists have developed an artificial intelligence system that enables robotic helicopters to teach themselves to fly difficult stunts by watching other helicopters perform the same maneuvers. The result is an autonomous helicopter than can perform a complete airshow of complex tricks on its own. Read » | 0 comments
