I like your Neapolitan hand gestures from the other thread! Great stuff! I can just hear the raspy voice that goes along with them. But you've rattled my cage with your comment about objective reality.
You wrote, "I think it's wrong to say; objectivism is a philosophy based on objective reality when we only know part of reality. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to say; objectivism is a philosophy based on what humans think to be "reality" so far?"
To say that Objectivism is a philosophy based on "objective reality" refers to its metaphysics - to the fact that reality is objective (rather than subjective). It refers, in other words, to what is called "the primacy of existence," which is the idea that consciousness depends on existence, rather than existence depending on consciousness.
