No worries, i did feel it was a bit dismissive, but no hard feelings at all.
I think your main claim is that concepts exist even if there is not a human to perceive/think of them. I have no horse in that race, sorry if that’s disappointing haha.
However, sometimes your comments seem to be claiming that _something_ must exist. _This_ i disagree with. We can observe that something does indeed exist in our universe. However, there is nothing that forced that to be the case. It just happens to be.
Regarding English, your phrase choice is just a bit odd and somewhat poetic, haha. It reminds me a bit of my dad, whose first language was Farsi. Here’s a couple concrete examples from your writing:
- “Maybe the way I expressed the idea wasn’t too clear”. “Too” is close in meaning to “excessive” (among other uses). I think it would be more common to see “wasn’t so clear” or “wasn’t clear enough”
- “Besides, why human?” I think there are a few words that have been dropped here, which would not normally be dropped even in casual English. You mean something like “Besides, why do we need a human perspective?” From context your meaning is clear, but the phrase “why human?” just feels unusual. I think the phrase “why X?” is common when X is a verb, but not so much when X is a noun. Consider, “why drive?”, “why worry?”, “why wear that?” all sound normal to me. On the other hand “why apple?”, “why lamp?”, “why monkey?” all seem unusual, even somewhat humorous.
- “On a whole other note”: i think the common phrase here is “on another note”. I’ve never heard “whole other note” before.
And now I’m curious: Is English your second language? In either case, your writing is unique in a very interesting way, and not something you should be worried about. I like the style, it gives you much more personality than most comments i see.
Edit: I can’t help myself, I want to guess where you’re from, lol. My best guess is Central Europe. The use of “too” to be “adequate” feels vaguely French to me, although that’s probably just based on Hollywood portrayals, since I don’t know any French. So I’ll say French is your first language, but I’ll claim victory if it’s anything from Central Europe :P
Edit edit: after googling, i see France isn’t usually counted as Central Europe. But I’m leaving my guess as France + Central Europe
