Human beings are desperate for human consciousness to be something special, beyond the limits of the material world, because it feels special and important to each of us. Quantum mechanics is what people with overactive imaginations who like to think they're scientifically minded use as a substitute for magic or the spiritual. Of course people will latch onto this baseless theory.
