Had a great discussion with a friend about objective vs. subjective reality. We concluded that there is no definitive objective reality. Any individual can only have their personal subjective experience of reality, and can NOT experience reality from another's perspective. What we arrive at then, and I think is interesting to think upon, would be that what we call objective reality is in fact "consensus vocabulary". My subjective experience of the "table" is unique to only me, and yours to you. The agreement of what reality IS for each of us is then only arrived at by our agreement on the WORD, the table.<br><br>We can then begin to understand what this battle that is being waged is above all else: The war on language. Language at it's core shapes our perception of reality, and is the foundation for the premise of the core argument I believe Upper Echelon is making. When our consensus language by which we agree upon to describe our world comes under fire, you can bet the erosion is in full swing.
