Re: What is reality?
[ QUOTE ]
I think the only problem I have with this is that information is perceived via our senses and then interpreted via our minds. How do we know the information we interpret mirrors reality.

You don't. If you're insane and constantly hallucinate, you probably live an unfortunate reality with a diminished ability to access the information the rest of us perceive as "real" -- however, if your hallucinations happen to be completely consistent, your reality is qualitatively no different from the rest of ours. It would simply be the case that your mental reality (the information built and processed by your brain) is insulated from the information that the rest of us have free and fairly reliable access to.
