I think we maybe talking about Facts, Truth, Perception & Reality Here all entangled into one.

If facts can be considered Truths therefore They are Real.

For instance Every Human being feels hungry, we all have heads, hair and so on...These are Facts, Truths, they're not perception, they are a reality.

If it starts raining all over London, it's a fact to everyone even to those who don't live in London, that it is indeed raining. But to some The same Rain maybe a great News, to others it may not be the case for apparently different reasons. That would be their reality based on their perception of the rain.

First, #1doc, u r welcome to my humble abode anytime.

Darvince, agreed. Thats the joy of philosophy, we could spin this for years.

People do the same thing with politics. I don't get joy there. Maybe because people are emotionally involved.

I've enjoyed this one, all the reads. Just don't know how to add to it.
