> You seem to posit a reality beyond our recognition or understanding. 


Indeed I do.  Nothing is clearer than that this has always been the case. 
The Greeks based reality on earth, air, fire & water.  Later it was atoms, 

then quarks, then strings, then m-branes, then... 

Within the next hundred years we will be able to talk to the other 

animals on our planet.  After that to aliens that are hundreds of thousands 

or even millions of years more advanced than us.  We have no idea what 
they can teach us. 
We can of course hold that however deeply we come to understand reality, 

the most fundamental level of reality we will give the name "Quality". 

But we shouldn't make the mistake of thinking that we completely understand 
what that is yet.
