Reply to comment by rejectednocomments in Wrote a short essay on Blogger with arguments about the realness and consistency of the perception of reality. Feel free to share your thoughts about the subject. by WrongdoerOk6812

I'm mostly asking questions about how realistic our perception and descriptions of that reality are. Assuming we already experience things we already consider as reality such as colors differently, In other words: does physics accurately describe how reality is or only the ways in which we all perceive the same relative differences between stuff compared to each other.

Another question could be if there is really something like empty space in which we and everything we see exists? Or is it rather a characteristic of al the matter and / or energy or whatever reality is made of, which we all just perceive in relatively the same way?

Okay. You might want to think about the presentation to make your purpose more clear.

You might also want to look at Kant.

Second this. OPs reply sounds exactly like a crude intro to Kant's metaphysics.

Thanks for the tip. It's not always easy to translate these kinds of ideas and questions into words without having an academic background. Did a quick search on Kant, and it seems like his first critical work could cover some inspiring points. Might well be worth a closer look, indeed.
