Beauty, Morality, God, and a Table

^For #'s 1-3, the three people are correct. So are the seven.

For #4, I can't answer until I know how the measuring implements were calibrated, if all ten people were properly trained in the use of those instruments, and if everyone involved is using the same definition of 'meter'.

It's interesting that you find a statement like, 'God is here', is correct.  And incorrect at the same time.  Can you explain this more, since it appears at face value a contradiction?

It’s not a contradiction. If the same person declared the presence of God and denied the presence of God, it would be.

But God is (according to the handbook) a non-material being. Therefore, ‘God is/is not here’ is a statement of feeling, of perception and not a veridical fact, like the length of a table.

If a person has a religious experience, no one can gainsay that they had an experience, but we may question its origin without doubting that person’s sincerity or honesty.
