Ironic that science is a subset of philosophy.

  That's precisely why, IMHO, if you aren't prepared to make a complete well-thought-through argument, then you should think twice before venturing into a philosophical discussion. On the other hand, due to the nature of HN, one has to choose between either spending a few days researching the comment and posting it with a very slim chance of being read or answered, or blurting out something not very polished. In this case it's the latter. (How you define “objective”? “reality”? A rough example of how could the answer to the question “what reality is” roughly look like? Any links to existing research—people certainly attempted to ask a question of this nature before?) The resulting discussion may be worth it, though.
