We are not discussing human rights, are we? The question is, I take it, 
whether or not you think that observations in the natural sciences have 
some kind of connection to a mind-indpendent reality. Do you? Why do you 
write "that's all", as if a theory's relation to observations is of no 
special importance?    (02)
