RE: A brief plea for logic and reason
Nice roar, lion. But how do you intend to convince those who don't believe in a reality that can be measured and experienced objectively? Only because a theory doesn't work for you doesn't mean it also doesn't work for others, does it?
I don't feel the need to convince them it can. It is just a matter of fact that it can. Objective as far as we know to the best of our ability is completely in reach. You can test plenty of things you don't objectively witness at a casual glance. Air, gravity, etc. None of those involve miracles, none of them involve faith. There are some that yes, believe everything is subjective, and that nothing externally is real. But that is just as unfalsifiable as a claim to the contrary. It is best when dealing in reality where you have to work within the parameters it requires to best understand it on it's terms, and assume that it is at least as real as it is going to get this time around.
What if they don't care and only see that you have an unfair advantage because of that "science" you use? In their view , it is not science and distinction that makes the world go round, but the collective equality on all levels. As everyone is given the same amount of gravity, shouldn't everyone also get the same amount of being right? When for someone the earth is flat, then that person should be as right as a person who thinks earth is a sphere. And if you say that there is "objectivity" which will disprove and nullify all other truths, isn't that oppression? Where is the freedom in your mindset? They must thing you live a very sad life - and what if they decide to change that for you?
