Simple, I think I was reacting to the Baptist mentality dressed up as secular science. Which really all most atheists really are. I am not sure you understand what objective actually is so yea my post would be difficult. But you seem highly educated so that is understandable. It's a disorder that lots of quite time in nature can help. So what is objective what goes on in your highly educated brain? Feynman got it if you listen closely.
Ok, ok....Let's see if we can find a common ground. As far as baptist mentality...I was raised Lutheran. I was a baptist minister in a hispanic church (speaking only english) but after having received advanced degrees in statistics, ornithology, ichthyology, evolution, and experimental design. I have "read" the protestant bible (read meaning cover to cover from in the beginning to may he come quickly amen) 7 times; as well as countless nights reading tons of other religious texts.
Now, when you say you are not sure I understand what object 'actually' is, I understand objectivity to be open mindedness, fairness, the lack of bias or prejudice. Furthermore, objectivity is based on objective fact, i.e. reality as far as our senses can perceive, as opposed to predispositions, authoritative doctrines, or lucid dreams (lol).
As far as your post being difficult..ha, educated folks have difficulty understanding you...really? lol that is the bet you've got?
Perhaps you can point out where my previous comments, or my comments from this post, are in err? As to questioning if I understand your comments?
[edit] as far as hour in nature...I am 12 years the chair of the field trip committee for the most active chapter of the Audubon society in north america. I lead more than 35 field trips, coordinate close 500, and spend 1000s of hours in nature on an annual basis.
