There is a difference between "what is" ("reality") and a model/theory of
it. Our link to "reality" is
always ONLY a set of models/theories. Using a metaphor models/theories are
ONLY
maps of "reality". Saying "can eventually be described with physics" is a
claim that is
not acceptable. It has no truth value.
