...On subjectivity
Is there any absolute in this world that we can absolutely place our finger on? Some say yes and then they proceed to give examples. This is all fair and well, except that they never quite reach the mark with their examples.
A seemingly true example is that numbers are absolute. But whomever believes this is only fooled by numbers' overwhelming preciseness and usefulness. Is the thought of the number 2 the same as another's thought of the same number? No. For each person clearly has their own subjective image that stands for the number. Thus making each person's idea of the number at least slightly different.
What is included in a number? What is included when one states that there is one of something? What if that object looses an atom? Is it still one, or has it now become part of one? Each one's mind creates it's own abstract image of a number, in accordance to what that person is trying to numerize. The key word here is 'abstract'.
Now, you can say that you absolutely are in the midst of some kind of conscious experience. That you experience life. But everything else is completely subjective, and up to the individual's perception of the world around him. (This is a rough draft...to be revised)
