What is the nature of reality?

Reality generally refers to the nature of that which existed in the past, exists in the present and will exist in future, but not always. Sometimes the term reality can be used to refer to the existence of individual experience. Today it can also be used to refer to "unscripted" as in reality TV. So if the context is TV, then the nature or meaning of that use of the term is 'to be unscripted", i.e., Reality TV leaves the impression in the viewer that the show will be unscripted (on account of the meaning being conveyed) .When many people ask about the nature of reality, they are referring to the reality known to human existence.


Why do you have questions?

Human nature! Because answer exists.

What makes a fact true?

The question "what is truth" is something that philosophers have argued over for centuries. Many people believe in objective external reality, in which case a fact would be something that conformed to objective external reality (that is, anybody who viewed the same reality could rationally have only one true interpretation of it).However, many philosophers argue that there is no such thing as an objective external reality - for example, by arguing that nothing exists outside of the human ability to perceive it. It is thus not possible for something to be "objectively" true. This is a controversial position but it remains popular.Mathematicians often say that mathematics is independent of human reality, and therefore has objective standards of truth. But this is not accepted by everyone either.I believe a fact is a statement that is true.


How do you avoid making assumptions in thinking?

It is important that you realize that you cannot avoid relying on some assumptions. For instance, there are a few assumptions basic to all methods of rational inquiry:- That there exists an objective reality outside and independent of our perceptions;- That our senses provide us with more or less consistent data about this reality, even if this data isn't always comprehensive or accurate.- That this reality is ultimately comprehensible, that it can be understood by the human intellect.The most important thing in critical thinking is not to avoid assumptions, but to recognize which assumptions you hold, and to test those assumptions if possible.

Is everything that exists real?

Dear curious human, by definition, to exist is to have a state of objective reality, and therefore everything that exists MUST be real. However, if we consider the possibility of multiple realities, one may say that existence is relative to the reality you are in. In other words, things that may not exist in this reality, may very well be valid in another; so it also depends on how you define "reality" (and that my friend, is a conundrum). Also, is there such thing as an objective reality? How can we know for sure, when everything we perceive to be real is subjective to our minds? Good question! Cheers mate, Totsmahgoats
