Fixed, my B.
I think I understand where You're coming from, I just don't fully agree that there is no objective reality. Objective reality happens with or without me. If I were to die tomorrow, objective reality would continue to happen whether or not I'm there to experience it. If I were to become brain dead but my body continued to work, nerve endings and biological responses would continue to process reality as it happens to "me".
I do vibe more with the idea that something like consensus reality is bullshit however.
Above all I have mad respect for You and what You're bringing, It's just not for me.
I recommend Donald Hoffman's TED talk, which I'm pretty sure is linked on My website http://soulism.net. Hoffman is a cognitive scientist who literally wrote the book on why our perceptual reality cannot be objective truth. And he doesn't speak to any kind of religion or vague philosophy, his findings are 100% science.
When you die, your entire world goes with it.
