And even my mindset is less complex when I dream
Im more impulsive while dreaming too
The idea is that objective reality is a hard thing to pin down
Nope this isn't what my dreams are like at all.
Not really
But you've been fooled before already?
I find the I think therefore I am to be a poor argument since how do you know you're exist just because you think?
Yes but I'm very aware that Im awake now.
well in the end you are only relying on data
In your brain
Of course.
Never underestimate your brain though.
It's very complex.
The point here is that its hard to actually make concrete observations about what objectivity is
you never actually have seen matter
I disagree.
just a representation of it
I'm not trying to convince you of anything
Most things I know is second hand information but I know it to be true and trust worthy because those people dedicate their lives to studying their fields. And the fields I study I know to be true after days of studying and observing.
Fair enough
On some level we can't be certain of anything
Not 100%
No but I'm not that paranoid.
Plus even if it was all fake I'd still play the game.
Im not saying its fake lol
I know.
I'm just saying if it was the worst situation.
On existence itself atleast.
the point is that objective reality is probably not exactly as we perceive it
I can say probably not
Because we're just relying on a reflection of it
and thats a philosophical point
not a hard piece of fact
Oh I agree with that. However I believe objective reality to be very near to what we perceive it as since we're an intelligent and strategic species.
But that's a judgement based on faith really
a good judgement sure
How else could I survive? Either way like I said I'd still play the game.
yeah we all play it
And I sure as hell need faith.
