Okay, so philosophically, we have the Quantum Physics experiment (I thought it would be fun to use science as an example of the school of thought that we get religion from) of Dr. Schrodinger's cat. The cat is in a box without viewports, and a vial of poison in broken within. Experimentally (by experience alone) we do not know if the cat is dead, although previous experience tells us it should be. Therefore, if reality is dependent on the observer, the cat is both alive and dead (a 50-50 chance of each), which is not possible. Only when we open the box and observe it is the cat actually dead (or alive). So if reality is dependent on the observer, then everything we know to be true isn't, and something can indeed exist in two states at the same time.
Pragmatically, I guess all I'm looking for is whether or not people should dig deeper instead of trusting snap judgements so often. But hte philosophy part is fun too...
