  1. We all bring a set of different senses to the same reality causing us to perceive our own subjective reality.


  2. Au contraire, it is all subjective reality...

  3. Individual's perceptions.

  4. All reality is subjective, as it is dependent on an individuals ability to percieve it.

  5. Because our experience-the human experience-must be perceived and interpreted in each one's unique and individual mind, all is subjective; everything is different (to some extent) to everybody.

    This is what gives rise to wars and arguments, fights and disagreements.  Choice is what leads to "sin".

  6. Only nmcollege is near being correct. Subjectiveness is the state of having empirical, objective reality inside our minds as knowledge, suppositions, and theory. So everything we know is the subject of objects.

    Those objects are called cognoscenti, and they are any existent of which our minds can be aware. Cognoscenti can be empirical, or intellectual, i.e., of material nature or of mental nature, because other people's ideas can be cognoscenti; your own ideas are cognoscenti when you review them in your thoughts.

    It leads me to the question of what you consider to be "common reality." Do you mean objective empirical existents? If so, then the answer is no; not all is empirical. Some things are intellectual. Matters of the spirit are intellectual because the intellect is connected to the soul.

    "...as man is a being of self-made wealth, so he is a being of self-made soul—that to live requires a sense of self-value, but man, who has no automatic values, has no automatic sense of self-esteem and must earn it by shaping his soul in the image of his moral ideal, in the image of Man, the rational being he is born able to create, but must create by choice—that the first precondition of self-esteem is that radiant selfishness of soul which desires the best in all things, in values of matter and spirit, a soul that seeks above all else to achieve its own moral perfection, valuing nothing higher than itself—"

    Ayn Rand

  7. It can be both subjective and common (or shared).

    I am under the impression that the content of (night) dreams are demonstrative of subjective individual reality.  

  8. There is no way to know the answer, ever. because if someone tried to prove it, how could you be certain it wasn't just a dream or your individual reality.

    Come to think of it, this IS my reality ALONE. you were a very intricate yet insignificant part of it. Now your purpose is fulfilled, you asked the question, I answered, you will cease to exist after I hit submit, unless of course you email me or something, but it is only prolonging the inevitable. so long dude, ...so long
