i think someone can objectively be more rational than someone else

you're looking for the word "tiring"

or exhausting

Regardless of how I feel about the hot stove, it will burn my skin all the same

SCIENCE

the thing is, your view of rationality is dictated by your beliefs @NativeInterface

Iksio lel

thats irrational!! everyone knows the reason you get burnt is cuz its actually GODS STOVE, and he's punishing you for touching it @Uksio

well why does that matter?

it results in people having different conclusions about reality

what is reality tho

Determinitstic universe removes free will though

who has a better grasp on reality

you?

or me?

But bible implies free will

reality is what is outside of the mind

Because perspective is really important when discussing ethics and emotions

So what is it?

but you can't comprehend what is outside of your mind

everything you see and experience is in your mind

this could all be fake

all part of a fever dream

You can make models of it.

I think therefore I am Prodigy

You can test stuff and reference it with others.

hitting us with them Decartes powah

exactly @Dr.Wol

If it's all a dream, go and pour some boiling water on your hands.

we can try and understand, and if there is something, then some people are closer to understanding it than others

If it is a dream, simulation or else, it still follows some rules

Cogito Ergo Sum

how would I know if the water is real?

or just my brain imagining that it's real

You wouldn't.

exactly

if we are living a dream, then reality is that we are living a dream

your reality is contained within your own mind

But if it's irrelevant to you because of that, you wouldn't mind either way.

This is why I need to connect my brain to a machine

Just want to double check
