That's not my view. I think it's possible to have evidence for the objectivity of things. There's no empirical test, of course; the only option is philosophical argumentation. But this opens the door to moral realism, even as it rescues us from solipsism.
I see.

In that regard I take a more pragmatist position. It seems as if there is an objective reality, therefore it is meet to behave as if there is. From this I hope you can see how my view of practical effect as a stand in for evidential existence works. An existence indistinguishable from non-existence is paramount to not existing.
