BUT I DO NOT HAVE ANY ISSUE.

As can be CLEARLY SEEN and PROVED here. As I ANSWER the QUESTIONS posed, and ASKED TO me.

you INABILITY to just ANSWER here AGAIN, is SHOWING just how MUCH of an ISSUE you REALLY HAVE here.


Have you made ANY 'rational claims'?

If yes, then WHERE and WHAT, EXACTLY?
1. That is your belief.
WHAT do you ASSUME or BELIEVE is my so-called and alleged 'belief' here?

Is 'this' YOUR so-called, and alleged, 'rational claim'?
1. My inability to answer your questions.

2. It is one of many.

Are you here DISPUTING, or 'trying to' REFUTE, the Fact that you are NOT ANSWERING my ACTUAL QUESTIONS ASKED?

Also, stating Facts is NOT necessarily A 'belief' AT ALL.

Okay, and when you USE the 'rational' word, what is 'this' in RELATION TO, EXACTLY?

1. Facts are relative to the observer thus are subjective. Your observation of facts is your observation of how you see reality. Given the subjectivity of this it requires belief as your facts are relative to you and are not objective as such.

2. What do you mean by rational?

EXACTLY.

AND, it is through 'this' process HOW 'objectivity' IS REACHED, ACHIEVED, OBTAINED, and GAINED, AS WELL.

Not exactly...

Facts are objective. But how the person reacts and responds to the fact, is the subjective part.

The object is outside the subject, not within it, as your statement implies.

1. And that objectivity is relative if all is relative.

2. And what do you mean by "wrong" and "incorrect"?

3. So what is rationality?

The nature of objectivity being observed as shared subjective states necessitates the fact as fundamentally being group subjectivity.

Objects are outside of groups too.

This will cut to the chase: What is reason?

Can you explain reason without using reasoning in a meaningless circle?

Objects are outside of groups too.
Are they really? Because to observe an object is to incorporate it into thought, to incorporate it into thought is to incorporate it within the self. Group observation of an object is multiple subjective states aligning. Individual observation of an object is the multiple angles of the self aligning (i.e. observing the stove is hot requires the eyes, skin, so on an so forth. Observing a play results in the manifestation of different emotional states.). Objectivity requires multiplicity and multiplicity requires distinction. Distinction requires one thing standing apart from another and with this comes contradiction.

What IS 'the chase'? And, what WILL 'cut to' 'the chase'?

1. Do you know what a dictionary IS?

2. Do you know how to USE a dictionary?

Now, the dictionary that I looked in had eight different 'definitions', or 'answers' to your 'question' here. Would you like all eight of them, or just one particular one of them, or would you like don't 'thing' ELSE here?

If you were MORE SPECIFIC with your QUESTIONING here, then I can be MORE SPECIFIC with MY ANSWERS, FOR you.

YES.

But are you even ABLE to SEE or COMPREHEND 'things' IN A NON MEANINGLESS CIRCLE?

Yes, objects are not mind-reliant. Objects exist without perceiving them. When you go to sleep at night, the Moon, the Sun, the Earth, the Universe doesn't stop existing.

I hope you are right, Wizard22. As best I can reckon, the alternative to that claim is very unsettling to think about. My own death is also very unpleasant to think about. Will I ever reach a point where I must choose between one or the other? Where I must choose between solipsism or else come to an end? Being presented with that dilemma is the greatest fear imaginable to me. I pray there is no such dilemma. They are both equally horrible.

I give this knowledge to others in the hope that it is the right thing to do.

Consciousness of all lifeforms 'wakes up to' Existence larger and greater than itself.

The Ego defends itself against the Unknown, using Fear, recoiling 'inward', the first instinct and emotion.

I think that's what people interpret as Godliness and Divinity, after confronting Existence.
