Yup, this is indeed "the study of meaning." Unless your usage is the reprehensibly vulgar "propaganda." > The definition of reality, for > example, limits the possibilities. If we do not define reality... we are mad. It is our social agreement on the purpose/use (et al) of things (including ourselves) which makes them sensible. Think of a dog's brain, and what he makes of the items in his master's house: Since most of those items have no "dog use" they must not register as they do to us. Therefore your dog must think that you live in a heap of trash, a clean, a synthetically perfumed dump. (Which is why most dogs puzzle eternaly over their masters' objection to their crapping all over the place, I'm sure: "It's just a dump, forheavens'sake! Wolf!") Reality is all. And we can hardly go about thinking everything at the same time, now can we! > Additionally, there is an underlying > assumption that human senses can > completely discern all existing dimensions, > which is an unproven assumption. This happens when you come in late into the conversation: You are assuming that there are such things as mathematical dimensions in the universe apart from "our" three! This is a bum assumption [that our reality is confined to three dimensions] ... but if you go back up this thread of posts you will eventually reach the part where I point out your insanity (that's my job). And then you too shall be cured! > I'd appreciate comments on these observations > by the OP.
