2. The world as experienced is Real. (Empiricism)
3. The world as experienced is Ideal. (Idealism)
4. The world is the Ideal in the Real.

5. Beauty is Ideal.

7. Beauty is the Ideal in the Real.

What does existing entail? What does it mean to exist? Do delusions exist, and if so, does that mean delusions are real?
 
A timely reminder.

GOD IS REAL

A Note on the Thread
Contrary to 2500 years of philosophy and natural philosophy and 400 years of modern science, as well as the last 15 years of militant atheism, the existence of God is not something to be known; it is not a matter of knowledge, the existence of God. No, the existence of God (to be distinguished conceptually from the nature of God, which is the province of religion and properly so) -- the existence of God is a matter of judgment, of discernment. The existence of God is a value, a value discovered in and through the things of the world. God, the existence of God, is the value discovered in the world by unclouded percipience.

 
Of what? Your pretentiousness?

Where's the irony? Be specific. Cite a post wherein I pass nasty remarks about you personally.
You can't. You can't because I haven't posted any such posts.
Therefore, your "Lol the irony" is total bull****.
