RE: It’s All Relative: Notes on our Perception of Reality

Also try see it this way, If you take two 10cm objects to be measured against each other in a vacuum, would they be inconsistent? I want to believe there is an underlying absoluteness in certain measurement even if they will fluctuate under different circumstances.

Yes, that's true, prayers and visualizations fail more than they work, sometimes maybe just 10% success rate. that's confirmation bias.

Sort:

hmm. yes that is interesting. Maybe there is an absolute nature to external objects.
But like you said previously, there is a subjective nature to our perception of the external. Our sense perceptions are limited, so with that in mind I believe that we can never really experience the absolute nature of something.

yes, it is more understandable and I agree with that. Maybe it's something like consensus reality, something we developed and jointly agreed on to make sense of our perception of reality.

yeah maybe. thats certainly a possibility. All i know for certain is that life is mysterious lol

Lol..well, yes, but science keeps helping us learn and understand things better everyday.
