still, no one has as of yet offered any argument for how objective reality can logically exist apart from a belief that consciousness is a primary function of the universe, which is the only thing I have ever asked anyone to provide.
No alternative has been offered, so I am forced to persist in my believe that it can't. That belief says nothing to whether objective reality exists, or to whether consciousness is a primary function of the universe. It can not be proven that objective reality or consciousness exist at all. I do not want someone to prove to me that objective reality doesn't exist, since that can not be done. Any argument for how objective truth can exist apart from consciousness as a primary function of the universe, however, it seems, commits the fallacy of invincible ignorance. "It can because I say it does" is not a valid argument..
