The word 'objective' can either mean:
1. The state of reality as it actually exists apart from all minds
or
2. (of a person or their judgment) not influenced by personal feelings or opinions in considering and representing facts.
When one word has two meanings it can cause confusion. I've come accross the confusion in many different threads here.
I think we can drop the first meaning because it's impossible for any being to know the state of reality as it actually exists apart from it's ability to perceive/know reality.
So that first meaning is based on an unknowable reality and therefore irrelevant to all knowable things in the knowable reality.
I believe that God is the only being in existence who perfectly knows reality and this is how he can make/create all things possible.
Thoughts?
