I don’t believe in an “external reality”. What we have is only a constant act of measurements between items, of atoms between themselves. These items and atoms can be instantaneous will powers, emotional states, pain/pleasure states, judgements, thoughts, and memory accesses in minds/brains/bodies. Each item measures another item and instantaneously decides what program to execute: whether it is further analysis, further judgements, further logic paths and memory accesses, further pattern recognitions and or forced patternizations of that which has no pattern, etc.
So this creates a totally arbitrary reality - universe - situation of existence which does not depend on any possible denotation or metaphysical entity such as religions, values, laws, or anything that is assumed to last or be lasting or be somehow eternal or platonic. There is no outside, there are only relationships, constant measurements, constant interactions that then become memories and our mind tries to find logic and patterns in these recorded events, but they are all essentially dead events, events that no longer exist, that have essentially never really (what is really ?) existed but only in our minds, only in our assignment of forcing them to exist by memorizing them and creating their reality. In fact the real struggle is between what reality is, and that is only measurements and events and instantaneous reactions and actions, and our necessity to find some stable ground, to convert and translate them into some kinds of fundamentals: but there are no fundamentals, no stable ground, only measurements, actions - reactions, events, instantaneous pain/pleasure circuits that are activated.
There are no flags or symbols or denotations, no religions or metaphysical entities, in essence no real external reality: only relationships, only reciprocal measurements, each item measuring another item, each interacting with another item be it man, mind or atom. Information relationships, social behaviors based on imaginary and invented patterns are the only thing that really exists (but “really” doesn’t exist), if even the word existence has any substance to it.
Hence, this is the reason why there are never ending debates on everything, never ending conflicts, left versus right, rich vs poor, any opinion or idea vs any other reciprocal or opposite or confronting opinion and idea: [b]BECAUSE THERE IS NO FUNDAMENTAL REALITY OR TRUTH, THERE ARE NO ABSOLUTES. AND BEING THAT THERE ARE NO ABSOLUTES OF ANY KIND, EVERYTHING IS TOTALLY RELATIVE, EVERYTHING IS AN INVENTION, IS FAKE, EVERYTHING IS ONLY WHAT THE STRONGEST PARTY AT HAND FORCES IT TO BE (and it must always be forced into something or another, no matter what).
ABSOLUTES ARE FORCED, BY BRUTE FORCE AND POWER SINCE THERE ARE NO ABSOLUTES: END OF STORY.
