Far from it. I appreciate your honesty. I know I my mind is untrained. I don’t explain myself properly. I can’t get the concepts i have in my head accross to other people. I will try harder. Thanks.

Can we see light?
If you’re straight, you can’t choose to be gay. If you’re bi, you’re attracted to both sexes. Your orientation is fixed.
Now that’s what I was looking for. Thanks.
That’s my point, very few people understand the process, but they can all See the rainbow. It is common usage that a rainbow is the perceived arch of colours, not the process.
You don’t Need a preference for every possible scenario. You only need a basic set that covers every possible scenario. For example, let’s say you don’t like spicy food. You don’t have to try chicken curry, beef curry, mutton curry, fish curry, from every curry shop in every city, in every country in the world, to know you won’t like it. A basic set of preferences can cover all situations.
Oh, I am. But is there anything wrong with asking for help from people who might already know the answer?

How often have you had to change your name to Thomas John Walterson and move to Australia? More importantly, If you thereafter had to change your name to Thomas John Pieterson and move to New Zealand, does I make sense to draw up a compel new list of or and cons, or to just alter the preexisting list? I never said the list covers all possible scenarios. I’m talk in about a list of basics which when applied, determine your action. For example, do you like hot or cold weather? Apply to scenario. By applying the basic list, you can resolve even unimagined scenarios. You don’t make up a preference for tea or coffee each time you are offered tea or coffee. The preference is already determined.
So what? A camera records a light pattern which it later emits to our eyes, resulting in a visual representation. A rainbow is link any other image in a mirror. A virtual image. It exists in the mind of the observer. The same way two people see two different images in a mirror. Technically, we each see two images. One for each eye. We also see two rainbows, uncles we are looking at an image on a screen.
That, combined with maslows hierarchy of needs as the operating procedure of the subconscious.
The point is that a photon is a boson particle. At the moment we detect a collision, the photon ceases to exist. Prior to the collision a photon existed. We can only ever detect where and when a photon has struck something. Never the photon itself.
I never claimed to be right. I’m just asking if there’s evidence I’m wrong.
I’m trying to point out the difference between detecting something and detecting it’s effect. We detect the spike in energy resulting from light striking something. https://books.google.co.za/books?dq=do+we+see+or+feel+photons%3F&hl=en&id=rPNHAwAAQBAJ&lpg=PA109&ots=z-SPeSNkqN&pg=PA109&sa=X&sig=DNk__1lCk-GcaYSeMXSSoBeUsFs&source=bl&ved=0ahUKEwiytpf1m43TAhWBCMAKHZ9vAUEQ6AEIQjAH#v=onepage&q=do%20we%20see%20or%20feel%20photons%3F&f=false
How about this, where does a rainbow exist? Is a rainbow the process which results in a light pattern? Or is a rainbow the arch of colors we perceive in our indirect version of reality?
Qualia fall under input data. The list is preferences like tea or coffee, shower or bathe, black or red, Tec.
As for your last point, I understand that you consider the absorption of the photon as detection. By your logic, a rock detects light. Do rocks also feel cold?
Wow! That’s exactually what i was thinking. The list is just my idea of how our actions are determined, without the involvement of the conscious mind.
So you say. Do you prefer summer to winter? Tea or coffee? Chocolate or vanilla ice cream? What determines those preferences?
