Actually, I have answered your question. A property intrinsic to an object and observable can be measured. Other objective properties of an object can be measured accurately (height, weight, color).

Yawn. You did not answer. You need to prove empiricism empirically. You haven't done that. How do you prove that all reality is measurable? You would have to be all knowing to know that all reality is measurable because you would have to be aware of all things. Indeed, you would have to be God to prove it. And you, sir, are not God.

I did. I have shown you what logic I followed to arrive at my conclusion that "value" and "worth" are subjective. I have yet to see a comparable argument from you that they are objective. As far as I can tell, you do not have an argument, you simply nay-say mine. That, of course, does not work to fortify your position, even if you had any valid criticisms of my argument (which I also have yet to see).
