Philosophy discussion

This week's readings raise the ultimate ontological question: Is there such a thing as reality? Where do you stand on this question, and why? As noted in the content, many philosophers question whether these ontological musings are relevant—whether or not we can know the ultimate truth of reality can be a challenging or amusing debate topic, but the answer does not make a difference to whether or not science works. What is your take on this question?  Make sure to correlate your response with our assigned reading for the week!
