    Yes there is. You’re acting like objective truths don’t exist. Water is made of 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen atoms. We know this, we can repeat it, it is predictable. This is why the scientific method exists.

    I mean you’re expressing a lot of strong opinions for someone who says they don’t know anything. You seem to know enough to disagree with me at the very least lol.

      Objective truths only exist in information handling from a singular perspective. That water you’re talking about can just as easily be part of a simulation. A better example of an objective truth is that 2 inputs in an AND gate turned on outputs on. You can show me something you call an AND gate and show me a million results with various inputs and outputs and I can learn to trust it even, but I can’t determine with absolute certainly that it’s an AND gate. I’ll still play with it though. It’s working knowledge, not absolute truth. You should look up English prime.

          This isn’t solipsism or anything close to it. It’s purely rational. The point is for people to describe their experience and observations without determining what something is on some kind of ridiculous inherent level. Y’all just wanna dictate facts and feel like you’re authority. That is not science.
