Actually the qualitative experience of colour for you is ultimately a construct of your brain. Your cones in your eyes don’t themselves 'see' colour.
Ye there is likely something objective going on as you suspect, but i don’t think it’s proven simply by an appeal to the fact...
Well as i mentioned, what about the perception of colour? The grass isn’t actually green; it simply reflects part of the electromagnetic spectrum into our eyes and our minds' label it internally as 'green’ or 'blue' etc.
The qualitative colour of something is very much a construct...
No what i say does carry some weight i think as a retort to your specific proof.
You aim to falsify the statement 'there is no objective reality'.
You do this by picking some phenomenon and demonstrating that people (ie the subjects) have no capacity to manipulate it, proving that its not...

I think in general, a reasonable stance on such issues of health involves defining something as a problem when its seen to negatively impact someones life.
Well when quantifying the first thing you need are units. Quantification is often of something quite specific, and in deciding upon units, you will also decide on what it is exactly your measuring. Broad terms/subjects arent easily quantified because applying narrow specifics to a broad and...
Well i guess it would be worth saying why you think its unhealthy to begin with. A position is only as good as its reasoning after all. Would seem silly to 'chew up' any position prior to presented arguments.
Ye, its pretty cool. A big group of us go and camp for the weekend. Should be good fun :D Theres fancy dress on the Saturday too, and i have a dinosaur onesie, which im pretty proud of lol. :P
