However, by sharing their comparable experiences intersubjectively, individuals may gain an increasingly similar understanding of the world.
In this way, many different subjective experiences can come together to form intersubjective ones that are less likely to be prone to individual bias or gaps in knowledge.
However, we can intersubjectively verify that people almost universally experience discomfort (hunger) when they haven't had enough to eat.
Incongruent contradictions between the experience and descriptions of different individuals can be caused by a number of factors.
[4] There have been attempts to bring the two into congruence, and the modern, cutting edge of science, especially in physics, seems to many observers to lend itself to a melding of religious experience and intersubjective verification of beliefs.
(Albert Einstein)Other scientists, who are committed to basing belief on intersubjective verification, have called for or predicted the development of a religion consistent with science.
A religion old or new, that stressed the magnificence of the universe as revealed by modern science, might be able to draw forth reserves of reverence and awe hardly tapped by the conventional faiths.
(Edward O. Wilson)Responding to this apparent overlap between cutting edge science and mystical experience, in recent years, there have been overt efforts to formulate religious belief systems that are built on truth claims based upon intersubjective verifiability, e.g. Anthroposophy, Yoism.
