Here is another fundamental I appear to have:
I cannot divorce my comprehension of "nature of reality" without
always attempting to include our roles in it.
I believe we anthropomorphize somewhat automatically, ascribing
characteristics of our comprehension as being qualities that can
affect/influence the entire cosmos. This includes logic and
mathematics and the sciences and any human knowledge endeavor.
I don't see this as a bad thing, except when it's misleading,
but rather it's inevitable; we have never been anything *but*
humans and our comprehension of things must, in my opinion, be
patterned after ourselves.
example: You are a neutrino. You barely interact with matter.
You solely interact via the weak subatomic force.
a) Your view of the Universe will be entirely different.
b) That we can conceptualize such a thing while being humans
might seem surprising; what possible analogy could exist for the
neutrino?
Easy.
Obscurity of person.
The neutrino is the quantum physics equivalent of the isolated
individual, who barely interacts with other people, whose
presence is never felt and who is nearly invisible.
Yet, we can conceive of it. We can measure it.
If there were things in the universe we could not conceive of,
we would be unable to measure them. We are always a part of the
equation.
