Is everything subjective or is there objective things in life ?

[com7fy8]

It feels as though most things are subjective and emotional.

Well, we humans have how we experience things . . . subjectively and emotionally.

But - - about morals, for one thing . . . there is "the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience" (in Ephesians 2:2). We see the results of how Satan's selfish spirit is working people to live and not to love . . . no matter how much people know and how intelligent people may be.

Now, either there is such a spirit, or there is not. So, that is an objective issue, I would say.

And if there is evil caused by the spiritual realm, God knows if there are certain things that are caused only by Satan's evil spirit; and so, God can tell us what is morally wrong, because of Him knowing what is caused by Satanic spiritual beings through humans.

But we humans are the ones who can fail be tell the difference between what is caused by God's love and what is caused by a Satanic spirit of fear and cruel hatred and unforgiveness and using people for pleasure instead of dearly loving and caring about people in God's love. Selfish people can simply be in denial of how they could do better > so they are subjective.

So, with God we can have Him guiding us at each moment according to all He knows is objectively true about what He would have us doing in His love, versus how the spirit of evil would have us in selfish stuff for pleasure and make us also weak for suffering.

Some interesting experiments were done with Eugene Wigner (Wigners Friend) and a modification of Wigners Friend.

It seems that at least in the quantum world two observers can have different results at the same time suggesting that reality may actually be subjective. Or at least two people in different positions can have differing results to the same formula.

Everything is subjective

However, this probably makes discussion impossible

In practice, it's probably best to regard at least some things as objective

Bible Gateway passage: Job 28:28 - New Century Version

Then he said to humans, ‘The fear of the Lord is wisdom; to stay away from evil is understanding.’”

[essentialsaltes]

Facts are objective.
Facts are incapable of feeling.
Facts are unaffected by your emotional response to them.

The mere concept of truth, as it relates to reality, has to be objective.

If it were subjective, we would have no ability to distinguish truth.

The subjective is a tiny realm. Reality is fundamentally objective.
