An objective world 'out there' would necessarily be ordered and structured - perfection, in fact, and thus inaccessible. Such is God for believers; and such is 'the world as it really is' for atheists..

Re: What is it Like to be a Dragonfly?
The first line of the article is already problematic. Asking "how the world really is" implies that there is an objective world 'out there' that can't be perceived by anyone. An ineffable status, akin to belief in a deity.
