I believe that there is no fundamental difference among our ideas on different things. That is the reason we name things!

If you really believe what you say, you couldn't even ask the question. Because it wouldn't matter. All the answers would be the same. In fact you could ask any question and it would be the same question. And all the answers would all be the same.

You're looking at all of existence from a unified theory perspective. It means, all is one and one is all. This may be true. But it doesn't help in day to day life.

I may have different ideas about bullets and bread. You say they are the same. I can't eat bullets.

We could talk about this for hours, but what's the point. It's all the same answer. All the same discussion.

Let's just back up a bit here. Is there a fundamental difference among our ideas on different things? You bet. Otherwise we wouldn't have different political parties, we wouldn't have different religions, we wouldn't have different anything. As for naming things, each country and each culture has its own name for things. So I'm not sure what your point is here. I guess we have a fundamenetal difference in our ideas.

Interesting. And very post modern.
But, yes I do think "there are fundamental differences among on our ideas on different things".

I disagree...
There is a fundamental difference between ideas on different things
between different peoples of the world.

There is great difference in ideas on different things, though you are correct in saying the fundamental ideation process is quite similar. We do categorize things along similar cognitive functioning; basically. The superficiality of culture is still there, though.

If you mean that we percieve things in a more or less identical manner & that common experience is essentially objective, either liguistically, psychologically, or at the quantum level, ... well,...I have to tell you...I have a fundamental difference of ideas with you on that!

Peace,

err.. i do no longer could comprehend any particle physics to describe the exceptional thing approximately a sculpture, yet basically because of the fact elegance basically supervenes on some actual shape, it does not persist with that i won't be in a position to form a theory of characterizing the cultured that fragments from despite the fact that underlies the composition.

We can't even agree on that. Words carry baggage that differ from person to person, language to language. A good example is "snake. " What does it conjure in your mind? The serpent of Eden? The servant of Buddha? The sacred creature of the Inca? The medium of change in Voo-doo? It's just one word.

differences arise from fundamentals as ideas from time to time.
world was thought as flat prior Aristotle,then came to as round.
so ideas goes like that.
