aeonbeatThu, Dec 27, 2007 Yes, I had the same example in my head, So, how do we find out for sure if it is white? What's a dispatch measure for that... some kind of synchronism? we close your left eye and you see the world one way, then we open it and close you right one to see it from a different angle - it is different. Finally we open them both and we have at least two points of view collected. we have a better idea of reality, we recognize patterns, we save energy, by wasting less then the first time, so we can use it on something else. but i still have to experience that the elephant is white so to be sure it is. and in fact you could say it is blue and i could say it is red, but what we experience as truth is the same, just using different labels for the same thing. and this is a major problem probably. so here it is, our absolute truth... right in front of our perceptions. what's next?
