Wolfgang,

When I said "definitively state what reality is" I meant comprehensively, knowing everything there is to know about reality. I certainly didn't mean that nothing could be defined as reality. If you had read the rest of that paragraph you should realise that I was talking about scientific theories and experiments which can make sense of a lot of what happens here on earth, and elsewhere to some extent, but which also have to be reevaluated in the light of other discoveries and deductions. Your example of a red light and green light is off the topic in relation to what I said.

I'll repeat what I said: Reality is bigger than any one of us, and for one person to claim to know what reality is is absurd. No single human or even group of humans can claim to know all there is to know about reality. The world always has surprises in store for people who think they have found a definitive answer to a question, but that is what makes life on earth interesting. It would be a boring life, in my opinion, to know everything there is to know and not be able to discover anything new.

Little Hawk,

I like your distinctions between the mundane and the spititual, emotional etc.
