This shit made my head feel like it swells when I think about it.

You know... If you want to prove something, find it out for yourself. If you dont think that there is a New York, then go and travel there. Fuck, live your life and find your own truth, because you are the only one person who can tell what is right from wrong, and that is yourself. Be free people.

And so now you are using Kant, which is the most logical way to find out truth.

I thought it was every color, but orange is just what you see... because if I look at the fruit, an orange, I'd see the color orange. it's every color (including orange), but orange is the only color that light reflects into your eye, right? I understand how it works, but I think you explained it wrong... that's just what I was learned lol...

^that too^ don't trust anyone! live your own life, and find out your own truth!

Well, the way my professor explained it is that if you see an orange shirt the shirt is actually any color but orange because we are seeing the color of light that the material is reflecting; a white shirt reflects all colors of light so we see white light that is reflected off of the shirt, on the other hand a black shirt absorbs all colors light so it has no reflection of color from the light color spectrum, and thus it is black. Do you understand what I meant by my previous statement?

So is color light?

What exactly is color. Does color exist or is it just something to help distinguish things.

there a bunch of waves

I think most of you are missing his point. TO HER...how does she know New York exists, for example, and it's not just a figment of her imagination? Traveling there would do no good, because what if that's just a figment of her imagination as well? The point is...reality is what you make it. You believe what you want, and perceive things how you want. You can't talk about this from a logical, realistic standpoint, because it completely changes the topic. She's not asking if YOU know for a fact that these things exist, she's asking you to open your mind and think about some crazy shit. If you take it all in, it will really trip you out. Basically, it all comes down to assuming you are who you are and things are the way they are, because if you don't you'll end up in a mental institution like a lot of geniuses who think too much about questionable things with no true answer. It's the things that CAN'T have a correct answer that challenge us.

Yes. Exactly really really think about these things.... its rather interesting when you do.....
