      But what is reality? The more we probe it, the harder it becomes to comprehend.

      Who are you? What does it mean to be a person in this world? What is reality? These are the questions Neuroscientist David Eagleman tackles in his new book, The Brain: The Story of You, and the PBS series, The Brain. Source: David Eagleman, used with permission
      Our common sense notion of reality is that our eyes, ears, nose, and fingertips pick up objective reality, but that couldn’t be farther from the truth. Smells, sounds, and colors do not actually exist in the outside world. The interaction between what’s “out there” and our sensory organs isn’t the whole picture, either. And the brain “has no direct access to the outside world. It’s locked in silence and darkness inside your skull,” says Eagleman. Our brains have never seen the outside world, and yet we experience it.
      In that case, if there is no reality, we have a deeper problem, because in the Thomistic view "Truth, then, is the intellect's conformity with reality."

      If there is no reality, there is no truth.

      And if there is no truth, it's all fake, and Trump would be right.

      Are you sure you want to make Trump right by claiming there's no reality?

              Whether I want to make him right or not, he is convinced he is and living in his own reality already. I am currently hoping this is an alt universe because I cannot conceive of a world where there are really this many people who are stupid, amoral, self serving, willing to dismantle the country or willing to aid and abet.
              It is beyond me how a system that has worked for centuries can fall apart because so many people are willing to ignore the Constitution so they can say they won.

                      Well. Kind of. "Reality" for the Big Aq is a little more complicated than that. The correspondence theory of truth as interpreted by us is seen from the standpoint of Empiricism. Tom Terrific was arguing from a concept of Reality that was anchored in what he honestly believed at the time were unassailable "proofs" that God's existence is knowable by reason. He had five main proofs. All have since been thoroughly debunked. So really Thomists in general and Neo-Thomists (who didn't get the memo) in particular are arguing an extremely elegant and eloquent hocus pocus theory of truth.

                      The good news (see what I did there?) is, nothing can assail it because no matter what happens it's absolute anchor is an axiom, not an observation.

                      Spinoza did the same thing 400 years later, but he crossed out "God" and wrote "Nature" and, in fairness, fixed some of the other logical errors Tom made in his zeal to work backwards to an axiomatic standard of truth (recall how InfoWars works). Both works are extremely interesting metaphysics. They just aint the hard-nosed empiricism you're making them out to be.

                      Editor's Note: Even though there's a catastrophic logical error holding the entire Summa edifice up, it's a godd-amn (so to speak) cathedral of wonderful thinking, and none too shabby prose for that matter, so none of this is to in any way slam it. It's one of the truly finest works of fiction created by man.

                              Apparently Greta Van Susteren has lost her job at MSNBC already. I can't imagine why. They don't really look for big ratings in that slot. Seemed a normal enough show. She's well known.
