We prove the existence of looking thru lenses all the time. We can prove color blindness, we measure prescriptions lenses.

You say I’m using a lense but the examples you are using is going threw a sun lense. I like spicy food, spicy food is hot. It doesn’t change that it’s pain. What I mean is you are also using the subjective lense of “some people enjoy it”.

I’m not reinterpreting surprise and shock, I’m stating the brain routes all that through the emotional and stressful areas of the brain then thru the reward center after.

That’s the lense being used.

“Oh I was surprised but it’s okay and safe so I feal relief and happiness “

Thats the lense as far as I’m concerned. You don’t have to feel that way but I still do even after what you’ve said.
