Dear Nobody ... researching on some of the things you said I turned up the following. I am not saying I'm a convert or even close, but I'm pasting it here because I found it interesting and it seems to be saying what your saying.

Quote:
A fundamental property of elements is that they are made up of atoms that are absolutely identical in every respect. Electrons are similarly identical, as are subatomic particles

Time is subdivided into increasingly small partitions until there is reached an almost (but not quite) infinitesimally small division hypothesized as the "Planck instant," in which, like the tick of a clock, quantum states change from one condition to another

The simplest explanation is often the best: the Plank instant is not infinitely small, it is actually eternally large, though we cannot perceive it as such, because within that instant time in the entire universe (as the objects composed of atoms perceive it) stops

The next simple explanation refers to the absolute identicality of atoms as well as the elements of which atoms are composed: the only thing that can be identical to an object is that object itself. The moment there is another object, no matter how similar it may originally have been, the two objects necessarily begin to diverge, and the identicality is lost

Therefore, the simple explanation is that there is only one atom of each kind, or even that there is only one of each subatomic particle, or perhaps only one subatomic particle which manifests itself in different aspects as far as we can observe it. However, there is only one, and within the infinitely large Plank instant, it manifests itself as all the things in the universe
