Dan: > How do you know objects exist prior to your experience of them? Depends on the object. Take my car, for instance. When I first got it, there were documents with its Vehicle Information Number, showing when it was shipped to the dealer from the assembly plant. If you went back to the dealer, you could find records where the parts that were assembled came from. And they would have records where the raw materials came from, and records before that how the raw materials were gathered. Of course, it could all be one vast conspiracy, but unlikely.
Dan: > As long as it is understood that it is a good idea and not a true > representation of reality. What is the difference between what's true & what's a good idea? A: It's true my car's in my garage. B: It's not true, it's just a good idea. A: But it's true that you see it there? B: Thinking you see it there is just a good idea. A: Walk across the garage; it's true that you'll bump into it. B: That's just a good idea. Whatever A says to B, B just says it's another good idea. And whatever B says to A, it's just more evidence that it's true that A's car is in A's garage.
