WRONG. You have reason to believe it is there
because you put it there. And you "know it".
However, if you (and everybody else) were
DEAD..... no one would know it... therefore
it would no longer exist... because it COULDN'T
BE CONFIRMED either by report, testimony
or experiment.

BECAUSE "the statment: 'the universe existed 15B years ago' "
ONLY HAS AN OPERATIONAL MEANING within
the context of "human reality".... If "human reality" did not
exist... then the statement HAS NO MEANING.
ok.... "human reality" is only 40K years old (was created
for the first time 40K yrs ago).... therefore the statment
"the Universe is 15B years old" HAS NO MEANING BEFORE
38,000 B.C.

[Hammond]
We have no idea what "absolute reality" is.... we DEFINE
"absolute reality" to be "identical" to "perceived reality".
THAT IS NOT A PROBLEM as long as "perceived reality"
is a "1:1 map" of "absolute reality". HOWEVER, modern science
(Hammond 2003) has discovered that the map is NOT
1:1... in fact (on average) its more like 0.8:1.... and this
fact explains the supernatural effect we call "GOD".
Taht is what this discovery and all this discussion is
about!
BTW.. congratulations.. you seem to be closing in on
a comprehension of what this discovery says.
