(and women?) This makes me think the electrons inside your brain are moving in service of the principles of justice you integrated into your personality, and also according to some intuitive (fuzzy, as in Zadeh's fuzzy logic) notions of what justice is and who's has the main guilt in a particular case. Also, the law text are give, but there are also give their interpretations? And, if so, the interpretations of the interpretations, and the interpretations of the interpretations of the interpretations? Maybe electrons do not understand such understanding of principles, yet they are (they act) in service of such understanding. Either one has meaning popping out of meaninglessness (emergentism) or he has meaning everywhere (panpsychism). I think we move inside a world whose meanings we are to find them out, for there's no life without personal involvement. Life is reality and reality is alive. Ultimately, these words, "existence", "reality", "life", "soul", they mean the same thing. Objectivism commits the inadvertence of leaving the observer out of its story. But, there's no story and no objectivism, thus, in lack of an observer. What we do not live we do not comprehend, for, if we had it comprehended, then we were already living it, for it were then a part of our life (soul). Objectivism seems to be reducing everything to objects, including the experience of having objects. The only problem is that it conceives the objects as un-experiential, as void of life. Then life does not exist at all. But, such a conclusion is counterfactual, for we already live. Existentialism is thus in service of the better Nietzsche, of his love for living, love for the life in itself. Gigantomachia peri tes ousias!
