Frances to Armando... Allow me to offer you some possible realist corrections to your support philosophy, which seems to be some kind of subjective relativism. The "final end goal" of any mechanism of matter or organism of life is to be found in the highest state that it has so far evolved to. In regard to normal human organisms, that state for all of them as a whole is cerebral and mental and psychical and intellectual and logical. The meaning of human life and the motive for human existence is therefore for thinking humans as a collective community to make the world they sense more rational, and thus their behavior to each other more reasonable. The greatest exemplar of evolving humanity is hence those actions found in say art and tech and science. The differences of individual singular humans are quite irrelevant to this inclined outcome of the species; and after all, the determination of anything made by an individual person is unreliable, because they might unknowingly be suffering from diseased deluded illusions. Only a learned group of normal experts can provide any assurance of certainty about anything, and then even this assurance must be held as evolutionary and tentative and fallible. In other words, simply because a sole person alone posits and believes what they deem is a nice artifact or a sound theory does not make it so, because the artifact may be bad perverted pornography or the theory may be false wicked stupidity.
