Snappy Questions - Fuzzy Answers

Question: Is there an objective reality?

Answer: Well, I guess it depends how you define objective. And how you define reality. And just who is the "you" that's gonna do the actual defining?

And you have to wonder if the definition has anything to do with reality anyway. And just what is reality? And how do you assume an objective posture if you're just a human being walking around on a spinning globe in the middle of a big old universe? And really as human beings can we really all agree on anything? And do we want to live in a world where everyone agrees about anything? And if we can't agree about anything how do we get anything done? And just why is the world so cocked up?

Anyway, I hope that helps. But I doubt it.
