Do you mean how one perceives things? We come to know the world and its objects by the energy, frequencies, and vibrations the objects are composed of and illuminated by light, which alter some aspect of the standing state of our biology. It is the forces of the outside world that make changes in us, creating an experience, and the judgment of those experiences is what we call meaning. It is essential to recognize, however, that what we experience is not the object itself, but rather how the object alters our biology, such that our subjective, everyday reality is a projection composed of our biological reactions. Biology is the measure and the meaning of all things and the only source of meaning in the world. Biological organisms are creators of meaning relative to the experiences of their bodies, which are then projected onto a meaningless world. This is called apparent reality because it is not the ultimate reality or what is there, but rather a biological readout of bodily changes and the judgments thereof as meanings. Differing organisms experience different apparent or everyday realities because they have differing biologies.

I do not believe in the supernatural. If there is a divinity, it is in the feeling of rapture of being alive, and there are a multitude of distractions and barriers to that end for civilized humanity. Are you looking for a faith to attach yourself to? That is one more barrier to feeling truly alive. Know yourself without identity, being that which experiences the world around you and, as the Hindu's say, "Thou Art That." The Sublime, the rapture of being alive. It is more than possible to never experience this in one's lifetime.

Question: What is the word for questioning the beliefs of another, and asking the wrong questions?

Example: Those who deny that the activities of humans (and contented cows) are destroying the planet, are climate hysterics? Herestetics?

Blasphemers.

Denial also serves to condemn heretics of the The Climate.

Belief denier.
