That doesn't answer the question. What do you mean by preferring?

I think your "preference to reality" is something you build up in your head, no different than anyone else, but which for some reason you project alot about.

Why is "preference to reality" to you an opposition? Isn't that just the nature of belief speaking?

What do you think you know that others here don't?

Preference for me is a better choice of word than expectation.

As far as I know I can expect the physical tendencies of an object, e.g. If I drop a ball I can expect it to fall as gravity acts upon it. Until the day come that the ball does not follow the expected tendencies it has been observed to have, I will take it as a theoretical fact that a ball will fall when dropped and I will consider it as knowledge.

I don't think I have any new information that isn't accessible to everyone else, what I think is special about this case is that it I think it highlights a pattern in the anatomical interactions of the human nervous system.

I don't care about what word you use, but when you use a shift of the word to go off on a different logical direction, it is avoiding the question.

What I asked is why you think it means anything to say what you did. You said  "'you prefer' to rely on what you perceive as knowledge".

thinking too much maybe walks a fine line. I wonder how I'm charged.

Then take some shrooms, once metabolised the molecules mimic the pathway of serotonin neurotransmitters.

Scans show psilocybin hyper-connects the brain and perhaps that's got to do with changing the polarity of the brains neural networks.

In other words I think that the active ingredients in magic mushrooms act to change the frequency of brain waves by altering the electrical activity of the brain and nervous system.

In a way, I also think it stimulates brain wave activity and that individuals can have a different set of brain wave frequency experiences.

I can't see my butthole. Yet, it's still there... I'm sure of it.

I think the moon exists as potential, activated by reaction with other things. So when a human looks or measures it a model is created.
