With or without 'college' we are able to use our senses by perceiving the world around us, that in turn shapes and creates ones own reality. Perception is reality. My 'reality' is not the same as your 'reality' since we all have a different mental database, life experience, physiology, different characteristics, environments we grew up and people we hang out with, etc. I might fall in love with a certain smell while it triggers bad memories for someone else. Same goes for the other senses while perceiving 'reality'. And how real is this so called 'reality' anyway? Our senses can be quite limited compared to a camera or other living creatures on the planet. There are sounds and colours humans can not detect with their senses. We in fact do not perceive the whole 'picture'. The most important things in life are unseen. My point is that we do not need hierarchic, indoctrinating, and capitalized institution called 'science' to tell us what, when, why, and how to think, experiment, sense, and live our lives. Long before there was any 'science', there was sense first. Nadja Sam

The quote, “With or without ‘college’ we are able to use our senses by perceiving the world around us, that in turn shapes and creates ones own reality. Perception is reality. My ‘reality’ is not the same as your ‘reality’ since we all have a different mental database, life experience, physiology, different characteristics, environments we grew up and people we hang out with, etc. I might fall in love with a certain smell while it triggers bad memories for someone else.

Same goes for the other senses while perceiving ‘reality’. And how real is this so called ‘reality’ anyway? Our senses can be quite limited compared to a camera or other living creatures on the planet. There are sounds and colours humans can not detect with their senses.

We in fact do not perceive the whole ‘picture’. The most important things in life are unseen. My point is that we do not need hierarchic, indoctrinating, and capitalized institution called ‘science’ to tell us what, when, why, and how to think, experiment, sense, and live our lives.

Long before there was any ‘science’ , there was sense first."
