That's swell, but did you have anything else to say about the subject of the thread that you created? Any comment on the specifics of the position that we could all consider and discuss, for example?
Is there any specific utility that you think it has for you personally, or in a discussion of belief and non belief? It's difficult for me to see whatever you see in this. There's reality, our models of reality, and our experience of reality. Three worlds. It's often the case that the three differ slightly in their contents..less often the case that any divergence is extreme - but it also seems to be the case that the three are intrinsically tied to each other.
In and of itself that doesn't seem very controversial or related in any way to anything you've remarked on so far.
