This has been one of the most entertaining threads I've read in a long time. I think it even relates to baseball somewhere.
I'm somewhere in between realist and relativist. There is an objective reality, but we all interpret it in a different way, creating subjective reality. We will never see things the way they objectively are, but so long as our subjective interpretations are consistent we will be fine. If my angle behind the plate causes me to see a certain pitch knick the outside corner, and I see it from this angle all game, nobody can argue.
