Objective

I'm coming to the conclusion that "objectivity" is not an especially helpful concept. I may perhaps not like where this line of argument takes me, but I think I'll argue it anyway.

Being human--more to the point, being a particular human--you are not going to be able to avoid having a perspective. The human's job is to have the perspective closest to reality and The Way Things Really Are. In Biblical terms, this is having the mind most conformed to Christ.

Further, it seems that the more Christlike each person individually is, the more unified we will be with one another. There will and must be a division between the sheep and the goats. But let the sheep be one.

But back to objectivity: it should also be pointed out that ultimate reality is a Person. This Person invented and sustains our reality. (In Him we live and move and have our being.) So it's really not that weird that His perspective be what's Real, nor is it weird that we are most in touch in reality when we share that perspective.
