Have you ever thought about, maybe we see colors differently?
For example, my green may be your red. So I may see grass as the same
color as you see blood.
The reason we wouldn't be able to tell is because we grew up with it and there's
no way (yet) to see through each other's eyes, or in this case through each
other's brains.
I say through each other's brains because it's obviously not the eyes that make
the difference (if there is a difference), because when someone gets an eye
transplant they don't see different colors in both eyes.
So what do you think? And please explain yourself, don't just say "No, I disagree,
that's dumb, you're dumb", explain why you think what you think.
And please, if you know the answer, if you know that the idea
that we see different colors is true or false, please say so, and explain
how you know.
Thanks.
