- Abstract: This paper explores the ER bridges theory and its relationship with quantum
phenomena. An argument can be made that the ER bridges theory does not
explicitly address quantum phenomena and implies that Einstein intended to
differentiate between individual particles within the ER bridges theory and the
systems involved in the EPR paradox. However, this paper contends that Einstein
held a distinct viewpoint. He endeavored to elucidate quantum characteristics
by modifying general relativity, aiming to incorporate concepts such as local
realism, separability, causality, and determinism, without relying on the
principles of quantum mechanics. He proposed representing elementary particles
using parallel ER bridges connecting two flat sheets to achieve this.

Einstein discussed a gedanken experiment involving a single photon diffracted at an aperture and impinging on a screen.
He devised the example to support De Broglie's hypothesis of the pilot wave, and his own ideas on the incompleteness of the description of physical reality provided by Quantum Mechanics.
Partial realizations of Einstein's example have been performed, but the complete experiment has not been attempted (for good practical reasons) yet.

We present a generalized EPR steering paradox, which predicts a contradictory equality $2_Q=left( 1+deltaright)_C$.
We test the paradox through a two-setting steering protocol, and find that the state is steerable if some specific measurement requirements are satisfied.
Our construction also enlightens the building of EPR steering inequality, which may contribute to some schemes for typical quantum teleportation and quantum key distributions.
