So? Is that reality? Then reality is STILL a fact. Check your premises. BUT If nothing is real then you cannot formulate a meaningful reality. Because your weltanschauung must start with "nothing is real". But that is ridiculous, isn't it?? You don't rely on that CRAP THINKING in a poker game, do you?? So from the pragmatic sense, your philosophy of meaninglessness would put an end to all progress.>>
Let us take them one at a time:
When I say real, I mean real as we see it. Which is how Rand was using the idea of objectivism.
Of course there is a reality, but we don't know what it is?
We do not understand quantum physics. All we know is part of what it is and that the equations work have worked for 100 years and it has been tested and tested for flaws.
The largest debate of the last century was between Einstein and the quantum boys: Bohr, Dirac, Heisenberg, Schrodinger, Wheeler, etc.
The debate had to do with if one could ever know anything for sure. Einstein said yes (god down not play dice with the universe) and the quantum folks said no (Bohr to Einstein: "don't tell god what he can do."
The debate was followed on the front pages of the New York times.
Einstein finally conceded he was wrong and the quantum folks were correct. How about that: i.e. you can never know anything for sure. |
