Do you believe in the subjectivity of reality?

Our brains cannot see, feel, hear, taste, or smell. These are all perceptions your brain picks up from sensations and waves. This reality, quite possibly, could be entirely made up. It is entirely made up.
When on acid, your perception of reality is so easily skewed because of how easily your brain can pick up false waves, or even enhance things that are really happening, from things you believe may be there. This is also so with those who are schizophrenic.

why do you even assume your brain is real ?

The brain is the most complex system on Earth, according to the human brain. it also named itself. We only use 10% of this 'brain', what else could be lying in there, if there even is an "in there" at all?@CynicGirl

CynicGirl · 26-30, F

@JackForrester this 10% only usage of the brain is nonsense

JackForrester · 22-25, M

There have been cases, coincidentally with schizophrenic patients, who have up to 16%. The highest known is around 23 I believe. Are you familiar with the fourth dimension@CynicGirl

CynicGirl · 26-30, F

@JackForrester every person uses 100% of their brain... thats a medical fact... the rest is urban myths without any foothold in science

JackForrester · 22-25, M

The idea of only using 10% follows the debate of perception, not intelligence. It debates the brains ability of how far it can really go imaginatively to the point where that is reality

@JackForrester thats not science thats pseudo religious stuff like auras etc

JackForrester · 22-25, M

No sciences still follow things from reality, to perception, to the link of neurons in our bodies that were million year old stars. It's pretty cool stuff

CynicGirl · 26-30, F

@JackForrester that sounds like a stupid alien story from the hsitory channel

JackForrester · 22-25, M

No, we actually are made up of the same particles that were parts of stars when the universe formed. There are only so many particles. We are made of space particles, that then became the earth and then us

CynicGirl · 26-30, F

@JackForrester well obviosuly everything is made of the same particles... but just because something is made from the same elements doesnt mean they share anything

JackForrester · 22-25, M

I'm not talking elements. And there could most definitely be a relationship. We live in this universe and it created us through the random alignment and ratio of these particles. Some scientists believe it means something

CynicGirl · 26-30, F

@JackForrester some so called scientists think the earth is flat..

JackForrester · 22-25, M

There aren't actually accredited scientists who believe so, just at-home ones who went to community college and run an online blog. You don't have to agree with me, but you don't really have an argument against me either

CynicGirl · 26-30, F

@JackForrester look we both arent obviosuly astrophysics but i did study chemistry and well there is a lot of popular science out there in the media that makes for a great story but is just nonsense

JackForrester · 22-25, M

if you say so. We could totally get into alchemists belief that what is in you is without you; the world is perceived as you believe. So if you believe this to be false, it will be. To you
Haha, this really gets me going

CynicGirl · 26-30, F

@JackForrester well if you really want to get your brain rotating try readign into quantum tunneling... there you might find some actual science substance into this "connectivity"
