illusion

the argument for illusion is what?

that reality is not all its cracked up to be -

may or may not be - real?

heaven forbid

or is it rather that the perceiver may not perceive - correctly?

so again

reality (here I include the perceiver) is not all it's cracked up to be - but the problem
can be isolated to the perceiver -

still though - it is however you work it -

that reality - and I am speaking sub species aeternitatis here - is not - what?

stable?

it can be real
it can be illusory

at this point real looses its universality

real - if real is to mean anything must include - veridical perception and illusory
perception -

and then the question

what are we to say of real?

one answer is - we don't know

so illusion is what?

perceptually -

reason to question the deliverances of the senses

the key to the sceptical door

epistemologically?

the argument of difference

without a clear uncontraversial theory of what is real - what is reality

(and this is not possible)

there is no argument for illusion

there is no illusion - only difference

the sceptical response to difference is to acknowledge it - accept it - embrace it

it is to understand there is no uncontraversial view of reality

that in fact there is no uncontraversial reality

metaphysical

epistemological

political

ethical

the argument of positive skepticism is diversity and tolerance
