==Description==
 
'''Subjectivity''' refers to a [[person]]'s [[perspective]] or opinion, particular [[feelings]], [[belief]]s, and desires. It is often used casually to refer to unsubstantiated personal opinions, in contrast to [[knowledge]] and fact-based [[belief]]s. In [[philosophy]], the term is often contrasted with [[objectivity]].[1]

The exquisite and [[transcendent]] [[experience]] of [[loving]] and being loved is not just a [[psychic]] [[illusion]] because it is so purely [[subjective]]. The one truly [[divine]] and [[objective]] [[reality]] that is associated with [[mortal]] [[beings]], the [[Thought Adjuster]], [[functions]] to [[human]] [[observation]] apparently as an exclusively [[subjective]] [[phenomenon]]. Man's [[contact]] with the highest [[objective]] [[reality]], [[God]], is only through the [[purely]] [[subjective]] [[experience]] of knowing him, of [[worshiping]] him, of [[realizing]] [[sonship]] with him.[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_196#196.3_THE_SUPREMACY_OF_RELIGION]
