How can it be explained, for instance, that reality conforms to the principle of causality if this principle has to be understood as one to which the operation of our mind must conform? Don't we have to make the absurd idealistic assumption that this is possible only because reality was actually created by the mind?
How about the fact that your brain, in early childhood, was developing at a rapid rate and being sculpted in ways which you will never remember or understand? How can you honestly say that you remember events or thoughts before the age of 3 or so? Who's to say WHEN this development took place? Perhaps, at least, the matrix/or framework for thinking causually WAS a priori. You don't know, I don't know and SHE doesn't know ... i.e. shut up.
