Reality Is Perception


     Human reality is full of physical objects but how humans perceive these
objects is completely objective, depending on the person and there senses.
Perception of physical objects cannot occur without other objects that allow one
to perceive these manifestations in the first place.   When a sentient being
acknowledges that they "exist in a world of physical objects", they also confirm
that their sense perception functions to an extent which allows them to reason,
even to a small degree, their physical existence.
     What is a physical object?  Does a physical object have to be something
you can see, touch, feel, taste, or smell or can a physical object exist without
one being able to confirm its existence? Is the sensory perception of a fly
wrong just because it has over a 1000 eyes or is the way humans view the world
incorrect because we do not?  A blind man can still help a person distinguish a
colour because no one perception is ever totally interpreted by only one sensory
organ.  Many other animals on earth do not just rely on there sight for
information about their world.  For instance fish in totally dark areas of the
ocean have no eyes and yet can still maneuver around in there environment by
sensing ripples in their area with special sense organs on their body.  Birds
also seem to use the magnetic lines of the earth to navigate south for the
winter each year.  It would be foolish to make the statement that all sensory
perception of the world is circumspect and is exactly the same for all creatures.

     All animals on the planet earth live in a hermeneutic spiral meaning
that we all live in the past.  Humans as with other animals can only sense a
cause after it has made an effect.  The assumption is made that if we sense an
effect there must therefore be a cause, which leads to a naïve realism of
perception.  As well, with sensory perception there is a large amount of
extraneous information such as emotional and ideological that causes
interference as to how we interpret the ...
