  It is shown that quantum mechanics is a plausible statistical description of
an ontology described by classical electrodynamics. The reason that no
contradiction arises with various no-go theorems regarding the compatibility of
QM with a classical ontology, can be traced to the fact that classical
electrodynamics of interacting particles has never been given a consistent
definition. Once this is done, our conjecture follows rather naturally,
including a purely classical explanation of photon related phenomena. Our
analysis entirely rests on the block-universe view entailed by relativity
theory.
