Thank you Saru. As my position has been fully expressed I would be happy to see the independent views of the independent Observers for me to be able to independently confirm my Subjective vision of Objective Reality or debunk such. I appreciate the opportunity, given to me to discuss this important matter and find the settings of Formal Debate forum next to perfect for settling the principle contradictions, which may arise between the participants in standard discussion threads.

In order to measure the objects of Objective Reality we first agree on the measure units we use (currently SI system) and then express the qualities of the objects in these units. "Large" or "small", "light" or "heavy" and generally "how long is a piece of string" has nothing to so with Objective Reality and are purely Subjective. Two hair on a head is not enough, but in the soup its too many.

Taste of food belongs to the senses which we use to observe Reality, this makes this taste Subjective, dependent on Observer - but the food is Objective. Other Observers can also taste it. There is a compound called Sodium Bensoate used to make most of the tablets sold. Official data on it says "tasteless", however the human Observers are divided into 5 groups on this planet - one group indeed takes it as tasteless, another groups as bitter, sweet, sour and salty...


And I am suggesting, that if my opponent Subjectively removes themselves from Objective Reality, then such removal must be accompanied by the removal of their Concept of Reality as an Abstract Concept, as it also does not exist Objectively. On this I rest my case.

WOW impressive Marabod...you sure have done your homework lol

impressive mate..I believe you took full control and well done

both brought up great points ...... very interesting debate indeed.

[BMF5150]

T'was definitely a very interesting topic and debate. The both of you have expressed something other people wouldn't have known and thank you for sharing those knowledge. Very well done, Marabod and PerVirtuous, it, sure, was entertaining!

[marabod]

Thank you, BM. But there was one detail... I did not do any home work at all, as it cost me no effort to express what Reality is because I really think this way, I was taught to think like that when I was doing my degree. Anyone working in Science must think this way, otherwise it becomes impossible to work with Objective Reality and study it. This was actually my premise in the previous discussion about the possibility of religious people to work in Science. In my view they cannot professionally study Objective Reality because they do not fully understand what it is and confuse it with their own Subjective Reality.

I love Picasso. He illustrates how mind creates reality.



There is a story about how his friend says, "Hey Picasso, I hear you're an artist now. Paint a picture of me."


So Picasso paints a picture of his friend. And of course, since he is Picasso, he draws his friend to look something like this:



See picture above

So his friend says, "No, no. I asked you to draw a picture of ME."



Picasso replies, "Yes, that's what I did."



Friend: "But I don't look like that."



Picasso is very confused. "But you DO look like that. You look EXACTLY like that ... to me."



His perception creates his reality. Same goes for all of us. Our reality can never be other than what we perceive it to be.


And that is what .... Alex Platups .... cannot grasp. Alex sees reality one way, and that is the only way he can see it, and if people say that they see reality another way, Alex believes that they must be lying, or insane, or escaping reality, or believing in bull.


Actually if everyone in the world saw reality the way Alex Platups does, then everyone in the world would be Alex Platupses. There could not possibly be a Picasso ... or an Einstein ... or a Jesus ... or a Gandhi ... or an Obama .... or a Usain Bolt ... or a Kahlil Gibran ... or a Steven Spielberg .... or a Steve Pavlina ... or a Newton Forte.


There can only be .... Alex.

this is very tru IMO if we are talking subjective reality, but in an objective frame the realty exists whether we beleive in it or not or percieve it or not or agree with it or not...

it just is..


i think pregnancy is a good analogy for this...

of course the painting is Objective but the image on it is Subjective. Moreover it is created by the artist, different people also would perceive it differently. Picture itself is just a framed canvas with some metal oxides glued to it, and it is our Subjective realities which make it a masterpiece. If Picasso managed to make a son like that, then this would've been Objective - but for this he needed not to paint but to spend a year living and sleeping in the reactor room in some power station
