is there a reality without a human to interpret it? If there is, is reality to a human actually a far more subjective reality than we give it credence for as each person must be experiencing a unique reality? Who said only humans can interpret reality? No one, but arguing from the point of view of a human. I mean sure anything that interprets, is interpreting reality, but your phrasing seemed to lend itself to looking at the human view point.

I can only approach “it” via acquired secular knowledge (which is nothing to dismiss.) Have you read much from the Funtalmental Fysics Group? And it’s interesting we’re having this conversation on the 50th anniversary of Woodstock.

I just picked up Nuclear Evolution to read this morning, so might be bogged down for a bit I remember reading that one too. Another interesting source of thought for you is Rick Roderick. He’s since passed away, but did do three Teaching Company lectures now available free online. His philosophy does not address the otherwise existence of Being, but explores the human search for Self. rickroderick.orgAll the lectures have transcripts, but it’s fun to hear him talk in his West Texas voice.
