Some food for thought: All experience is subjective, but this - TopicsExpress



          

Some food for thought: All experience is subjective, but this does not mean it isnt based in objective reality. Example: Two friends are listening to Nirvanas Smells Like Teen Spirit. The first friend closes their eyes, bobs back and forth and ardently says, Man. All that thick, gritty texture and raw emotion. So good. The second friend cringes and says, It sounds like a growling cat getting run through a washing machine. Question: Did the band Nirvana and/or the song, Smells Like Teen Spirit not objectively exist? Closing Statement: You may wonder why on earth Im even bringing this up. Well, Ive had a few people flippantly dismiss my belief in god/Jesus/the holy spirit simply because it originated from subjective experience. Im arguing against the validity of assuming this equates to my belief not having a basis in any objective reality. To clarify even further, Im not asking you to believe in god. Im asking you to wonder.
