Navigating Reality

I think it is important to sort reality into hypotheses, Theories and Laws. You cannot really accept fully other people's versions of reality whether it is present day or 2000 or 2500 or 10,000 or 20,000 years ago. You have to prove reality for yourself. Otherwise, you go through life as a child sort of willy nilly.

So, I prefer a more scientific approach to life than just accepting what everyone says or writes on an individual basis. People can be very well meaning and sincere but that doesn't mean they aren't lying to themselves because of traumas and various kinds of illnesses that they have or are now facing in their lives. So, on a daily basis one must be rational and move forward as a scientist in regard to all things to not be a child the rest of their lives in actuality.

So, whatever each person believes is true I have a certain amount of respect for simply because it is so hard to be alive at all past about age 18 here on earth for ANYONE. My own experience trying to stay alive between ages 18 and 25 taught me this in respecting whatever anyone believes in order for them to actually choose to live a single moment longer here on earth.

So, from my point of view if a person needs to believe that the world is made of green cheese just let them because this is how they have figured out how to stay alive so far. That doesn't mean I want to hang out with them it just means I respect that they have really been through something like PTSD from being shot at or something in their lives.
