Is light a particle or a wave?
It is correctly described by both theories.

Theories don't describe, they explain. So if light can at times be a
particle (having mass)and at other times be a wave (pure energy) and two
different forms of "descriptions" must be used (and applied appropriately
a priori) something is amiss.
Even more strange is that individual photons have only circular
polarization. An ensemble is needed to get linear polarization. Seems to
rule out a pure EM wave doesn't it?
Throw in the fact that the phase of its wave function is altered by a
abstraction called the vector potential (this supposedly has no physical
meaning) and one can really begin to wonder.
Unified theory? ahahahahahahahahahaaaaaa!!!!!!!
Energy transfered without a media? ahahahahahahaaa!!!!
Different rules for Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday?
ahahahahahahaaaaa!!!!!!
Aahahahahahahahahahahahaaaa!!!!!!!
Amen!
Does anyone really care?
