Objective reality? I see no evidence for that at all, especially for humans. I see humans all over the world making their own subjective realities. In some of those realities there are all sorts of Gods and Devils and Angels. In other realities people find objectivity in science, or philosophy. In some (like mine) there are only questions with no answers. Of course you may be seeing something else, in your other reality.

There could be an objective reality, but it doesn't seem to matter since we can't know what it is.

What if you are dealing with a mentality that believes it can never know the truth, a mentality that believes the mediocre should be raised up and the great leveled down? A mentality that can never say "I" but only "we".

"We can never know for certain and you can never prove, la di da di da ad infinitum" is their eternal mew.
