No scientist will ever tell you anything about "certainty," and I know you don't understand the spirit of modern science because you obviously don't get that.

Yes, yes it is.

You're so wrong about this and it's fucking funny. Go take a psych 101 class bro.

HBB is stating that your reality is all perspective and that you don't know what is real because you're only experiencing it through what you perceive via your senses.

Basically, you can't experience something outside of yourself, therefore you can't actually know what that cup on the table looks like without seeing it through your own eyes, feeling it with your hands, etc.

Your reality, and everyone else's, isn't the one true reality. The reality viewed through no "looking glass".

There is actually some guru/mystic who talks about this, I knew what he was getting at the entire time, but it's still funny to mess with him.

Naw, even when you see it with your eyes, it still has to get translated several times. It's like listening to someone through an interpreter. I'm not saying the person isn't talking, but YOU can't understand it and need a little help.

I can't very well tell you that your philosophical views are "wrong," but I find them kind of silly.

What I was saying about the nature of reality and our relationship with it are not philosophical.

Who thinks its either evolution or god?

I am not saying that there are only two choices. I am saying that the evolution debate is presented that way. It is a logical fallacy of false dichotomy.

Please elaborate on this tidbit.
*Gets popcorn*

Do not misunderstand. I am not saying paleontology is false. I am saying that evolutionary thought uses the findings from paleontology to back up their claims. Just like paleontology uses geology's findings for dating their finds with the various geologic strata the fossils are found in etc. Science is interrelated disciplines and if you introduce one false premise then it can affect the findings in other fields.
